What is criticism? Should it always be negative?

Yes, but it should be fair and resonable. If I am bad, tell me why, at least, I am entitled to that. No one likes criticism, but we can accept it if it is well founded and not insulting.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
