The Story Review

     I’m beyond excited to launch a new series on Inkling Corner: The Story Review! This is where I’ll list all the requirements and details.

    What:

I was inspired by a good number of other bloggers to create a monthly submission portal for draft review: that is, I’ll be critiquing poetry, short stories, and even short plays that writers submit. It’s meant to encourage, while also providing (hopefully!) helpful constructive criticism. I’ll of course always to my best to foster a Christ-like environment for other aspiring authors to share their work and do what I can to help! 

    When:

Every month on Friday, beginning on November 22nd with one of my own poems to demonstrate my method of critiquing.

    Requirements:

ø the submission must be a short story, short play, or poem. 

ø I will not tolerate any foul or explicit language, innuendo, or anything of an inappropriate nature. 

ø the submission does not have to be explicitly Christian, but it should be a story that is glorifying to God.

ø please create a separate document with your submission alone.

    Feedback:

I will...

ø do my absolute best to evaluate the submission fairly and offer as much feedback as I can.

ø give my honest opinion in a timely manner.

ø share the review with you before posting.

I won't...

ø be negative or heartless.

ø publish or steal your work without your consent.

ø post the review without sharing it with you first.

Thank you so much! I'm so excited to start this. Here's the link for the submission portal, too!
