I’ve never done this before, but I’m going to make you an offer it’s going to be hard to refuse:
Send me your story and I will offer feedback on a handful of the stories I receive, live on a call next Monday, May 23.
We write for our own pleasure, but every writer secretly (or not-so-secretly) wants to be read. This is your chance!
If your story is chosen, I’ll highlight part of it on the call and share what’s working and what you might do to make it more effective.
Not everyone’s stories will be chosen, but even if yours isn’t, you will learn a TON by being on the call and seeing what’s working in other people’s stories, and the most common fixes.
(People who have been in my Critique Weeks ALWAYS say they get as much from the discussion of other people’s work, as they do from having their story critiqued!)
Have I got your heart racing?
Your task for today is to finish up your story and give it a once-over to see if you’re happy(ish) with the voice, the structure, the character development and the way it ends.
Make some notes on your story today – you can cross the ‘t’s and dot the ‘i’s tomorrow, before you submit your story.
Remember: you’re not reading for spelling and grammar errors today, but the big-picture stuff.
Tomorrow I’ll share details of how you can enter your story.
How do you feel about the idea of sharing your story? Leave a comment!
