Criticism: “You write a lot of run on sentences and it can be hard to read.”

Opinion: “I don’t like what you did with the character in the last chapter.”

Criticism: “I noticed you misspelled a couple of words here and there.”

Opinion: “I thought the last chapter was kind of slow.”

Criticism: “You misrepresented a culture/practice/way of life in the last chapter and I would suggest reading up on it a little more before you handle it again.”

Opinion: “I didn’t like this because it didn’t fit my headcanon for this character’s behavior.”

Criticism is something objective the writer can change. Opinions are personal preferences that the writer doesn’t have to conform to.
