If you're a new writer, the thought of receiving feedback on your work can be both exciting and daunting.
When I first joined writing groups, I felt nervous about receiving critiques. Equally intimidating was the responsibility of providing feedback on others' manuscripts when I had no idea where to start!
This is why I wrote my ebook for new writers, focusing on the essential skills of giving and receiving feedback on works-in-progress. With this ebook, you'll discover practical insights that will help you tackle questions like:
How can I overcome my fear of sharing my writing with others?
What distinguishes helpful feedback from unhelpful criticism?
How do I find the right readers for my manuscript?
How can I provide effective feedback on someone else's writing if I'm not an expert?
My latest ebook, From Draft to Craft: A New Writer's Guide to Feedback, is designed to help you build confidence so you can complete your writing projects and advance your writing career.
Since this book is one of my 2025 goals, I prioritized its development to ensure it is genuinely beneficial for new writers. I even collaborated with beta readers, and here are some excerpts from their feedback:
"Thorough and thoughtful."
"The book provides a comprehensive guide that will help new writers navigate the feedback process with greater confidence and effectiveness."
"Your conversational style makes the content accessible."
"Substantial value."
This book also complements my first ebook, The Write Group, which assists writers in understanding the benefits of various writing groups, enabling them to maximize the value of these groups for their unique writing journeys. This book is currently available on Amazon and Other Select Retailers.
From Draft to Craft will be released later this year. Stay tuned! In the meantime, what's one question you have about giving or receiving feedback? Let me know in the comments!
