Critiquing: A Quick Explanation on Feedback for my Readers

Here is a laundry list of possibilities. Know that I will always want help with each and every one. You are not limited to only these listed, nor do you have to use any of them! It is ALL about feedback. I need for you to tell me what you find, see, understand, like, and don't like about the story. Please give me feedback in whatever ways work for you. I will also ask questions! "IDK!!" is an acceptable, if frustrating response.
