I thought this might be a handy list to compile. The idea is to have a list 
of possible questions if you give your work to someone who isn't sure how to 
critique your work. I'll start with a couple and anyone who wants can add 
more, then people can compile their own list of questions from the ideas 
here.

Time line, is the time line consistent and logical throughout? Do things 
happen within reasonable amounts of time, if not why not?

Dialogue, does the dialogue fell natural and logical or is it stunted and 
contrived?

Description, is there enough visual, and other sensory description or are 
there things/people you'd like to know more about?

Coriography, do the action scenes feel smooth and possible to you or are 
they vague, implausible or just too silly for words?

It's early and there are likely a million good items to add to this list 
that I can't think of right now. I tend to be very detail oriented when 
reading, structure, punctuation and grammar are definitely not my strong 
points.

Anyway feel free to add items.

Tessa
