For a site that I have lurked around for many a moon, I figured there would be a more conventionally laid out message board. Fair enough; this is more like we're all at a bar yelling back and forth, the most exciting topic bubbling to the forefront. Works for me.
I have a question: What is the best way to present a novel-in-progress here to be critiqued, Chapter by chapter? Or do people upload entire manuscripts in one submission?
Forgive me as I just paid for this, and haven't explored a whole lot. Tomorrow I shall embark on many a tangent on many of your stories.
Hi. Not sure it will answer your question, but you might have a look as this thread on the same topic. In general though, I believe you'd have a hard time finding anyone in the workshop willing to read and review a novel draft. Chapter by chapter is probably the way to go.
My preference would be to upload the entire novella. I have my reasons of course.
Since you're new, I suggest a chapter at a time, with a maximum of around 6,000 words. Members tend to read and comment witb constructive criticism. They tend not to respond to lonver than 6,000 words unless they are familiar with your work.
