Feedback

28 Jan

As you have probably realised by now, I did not make it through to the Undiscovered Voices final…BUT just had a brilliant email with even more feedback on the book. I’m always happy to get feedback, especially from such an experienced group of judges. As the email suggested, sometimes it is tempting to just focus on the negatives and get obsessed with the idea that your work is not good enough.

HOWEVER

Despite a lot of things to work on (which is exciting) I’m bowled over by the positives. Comparisons to How I Live Now and Code Name Verity?

Plus I had a ridiculously awesome SNI (Shiny New Idea) this week and hit a milestone in ‘The Hunt’. Writing life is good!
