2nd Draft Critique: Short Story Critique
You'll Love This Critique Service If:
- Your short story keeps getting rejected by editors or agents
- You're looking for professional feedback on what works and what doesn't
- You want a clear idea of how to improve your short story
Do you want to become a professional writer? A 2nd Draft Short Story Critique is one of the best ways to improve your short story and take your writing to the next level. In order to take advantage of this popular writing critique service, you must have a single 5-30 page short story* ready for review.
*The quantity purchased refers to the number of pages submitted for a single short story. Example: 7 pages X $4 = $28.
Wondering what exactly a 2nd Draft Short Story Critique entails? After reading your submission, a professional critique editor will provide you with specific, detailed feedback and recommendations. They will comment on your story's plot, subplots, characterization, dialogue, setting, and story arc. Plus, they will evaluate if your story fits the market and audience you're targeting, and point out (but not correct) any consistent issues your story may have with grammar, mechanics, spelling or style. Not all critique editors prepare their comments the same way or use track changes. Some reviewers provide the critique as a summary.

- Provide any fact-checking.
- Provide answers or advice on legal issues.
