Hi Joanna,

I’m not aware of any. Agents don’t charge to read but wouldn’t give you detailed feedback. You could try joining an online writing forum where people share and critique work.

Or there are some competitions where professional critiques are the prize, for example http://www.thenextbigauthor.com, where the top 10 pieces will get feedback.

Hi, i was wondering if anyone could tell me if there was a company that read my 5,000word piece for free and let me know what they think?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Many thanks,
Joanna

Hi Maria, Hi Jo,
I’m not currently planning to run it as an online interactive thing again, but that could change! I can see you’re both getting the newsletter, so you’ll hear about it if that changes. I’ll use it to create a course that you can download fairly soon though…
I’ll keep you updated

Hi Charlie -

Like Jo, I’ve only just discovered your website and missed out on your bootcamp.
I congratulate you for a sell out on this one – a successful venture; however, it would be absolutely great if you could re consider running another one for those that have missed the boat?

Kind regards,
Maria

Comment on The Procrastination Station by Rachael Greenland

I LOVE the Procrastination Station – what a fabulous idea! FB and Twitter are a massive time drain but a little addictive, and perhaps time I addressed my visit numbers… My knitting is in the sitting room so only gets done in marathon chunks; you’ve prompted me to move it to the playroom so I can pick it up between orders.

Thank you for your brilliance.
