Gotta agree with you here, Camille.  I was part of a group for awhile that 
circulated horror fiction, of all things.  There were some Ok writers, a lot 
of average writers, and a few people with a wonderful sense of humor and 
imagination that had relatively little skill (I actually liked these the 
best).

But it was ALWAYS the mediocre ones that were the most sensitive to critcism.
