Can’t commit to a workshop but want feedback on your writing?

We’ve got you.

Are you working on a novel, short story, or memoir that you’re planning on publishing or sharing with the world? Most writers will tell you that getting multiple pairs of eyes to edit and offer feedback on your work is a crucial step to writerly success. But not everyone can make the time commitment to attend workshops that are often in-person and cost-prohibitive. Well, don’t fear. Veda and Karel are ready to give your writing the attention and feedback it deserves—all you have to do is send it over to us, and we’ll have it back to you with plenty of thoughts, questions, and suggestions, so you can keep refining your work.
