Your support makes Blue Moon possible (Patreon)
Heads up Blue Moon Rpers! I'm pleased to announce that the weekend of Friday, March 16th - Sunday, March 18th, I'll be available to look over and critique anyone's work who is willing. Starting Friday morning and ending Sunday night, I'll be accepting work that adheres to the below. I'm making one change: PM's were difficult to do. I'd prefer if you e-mailed me your document as an attachment so I can use what is called Track Changes. This works with any Microsoft Word program or Open Office.
Please pay attention to the following:
Work must be no longer than 6 paragraphs (roughly half a page normal-sized font if posted in a Word Document) long. Please do not send a large block of text without paragraph breaks.
Work can be fiction or ***non-fiction, but can be anything from a sweet YA to an erotic adult story to a memoir. (Sorry, children's stories, while awesome, aren't accepted by Breathless Press)
Please send your work via e-mail. I will return your work with any comments or helpful changes by midnight Sunday (East Coast US time) at the latest. Please make the subject "Blue Moon Crit" so I know you aren't an acquisition submission and can give you priority. My e-mail is deadra.krieger@breathlesspress.com
Stories do not have to be complete to submit but if the story is not complete, please make a note of that in your message.
If you work has great potential, you could receive an invitation to submit your entire story to Breathless Press for consideration to publish.
Please, only one story per person (to keep it fair). I will be running these crits every couple of months, so don't stress; If you can't make it this time, there is always next time.
Please remember that the critiques you receive in return are meant to be helpful. They are, in no way, an attack on yourself or your writing preference. If you do not feel you can take an honest crit, please do not submit. If, however, you believe you can handle it, BRING IT! I will never, ever say "This sucks!". That is not a critique and is not helpful.
**Note: All works are considered sole property of their author. They will not be shared, publicly posted, or tampered with in any way that violates the user's permission. By submitting your work, you are agreeing to receive a professional critique from a qualified editor. Submitting your work in no way guarantees publication.
*** Non-fiction has recently become available at Breathless Press. It can now be submitted as a critique inquiry.
Good luck and best regards!
