Taos Toolbox is moving along— swimmingly, I must say— and has already featured two critique sessions, a couple of lovely catered meals, and a serious literary discussion in the hot tub.

Some of the moments of critique stood out, and here they are:

• Your story gave me a minor epistemological crisis.

• If you could write the next 20 chapters this afternoon, I’d like to read them in bed.

• Cloud should be something more than a cute furry cat that Sam sleeps with.

• Writing about music is like dancing about architecture.

• We want sore fingers and happy readers.

• I’m going to give my critique in the form of interpretive dance.
