John, I agree with you 99%. My only quibble is that some people have to do an awful lot of writing before they get the attention of a publisher's editor. In the meantime advice from other people--preferably people who know something about writing--can get them to the point where an editor will pay attention. As you said, suggestions of nonessential readers may be helpful, and sometimes that's all you're going to get. If you aren't getting any feedback whatsoever, how can you improve?<br>
<br>
But I do agree that unless they come from someone who is actually considering buying the work, suggestions for improvement are only suggestions and can be completely ignored at will without any qualms whatsoever.<br>
