A new avenue opened up in the
process of critiquing segments of the third novel of the Tessera Trilogy. An
online forum was identified which may be helpful, when I get to the point of
having segments ready for outside review. Once a week the following online
forum offers critiques of segments. http://www.reddit.com/r/writing/
I
copied from the forum website guidance on its use.
Your critique submission should be a top-level
comment in the thread and should include:
·
Title
·
Genre
·
Word count
·
What sort of feedback
you would like (line-by-line edits, general impression, etc.)
·
A link to the story
Anyone wishing to critique the story should
respond to the original story comment. The post is set to contest mode, so the
stories will appear in a random order, and child comments will only be seen by
people who want to check them.
This post will be linked in the announcement
bar, and on the side bar, and can be used anytime until next week.
