Feedback is a bit of a rollercoaster, isn't it? I've had some that made me so happy, and others that made wonder why I've bothered writing. And I'll admit it, once I got feedback that stopped me writing for a few years. In truth, though, all the feedback I've received on my writing has got me to where I am now, and much of that is down to my attitude to feedback.
In this episode I go through 2 key types of feedback, and give you some questions you can use to help you get feedback that is helpful and meaningful. I also give you a couple of tips for when you get conflicting feedback - which you will do, for sure.
I mentioned the Cheshire Novel Prize in the episode, which gives every entrant feedback on their writing. Here's a date for your diary - entries open on 01/01/24. It's well worth entering just for the feedback, and who knows, you may get long listed or shortlisted, like 2 people who have worked with me on the Writing Reboot. Here's the link to the Cheshire Novel Prize - https://cheshirenovelprize.com
