A novel critique is scary! Really scary! But getting one is important, especially for beginner writers. A good critique can take your novel or book to the next level.

A good critique will explain what you need to improve to make your novel better. There are all sorts of novel critique groups and online critique services. Some writers find trusted, critique partners they use for years. Professional authors can offer valuable advice, tips, and tricks to make your book better.

However, some writing critiques will do you no good because the writer isn’t knowledgable enough or or have a lot of writing and publishing experience.

Writers can get 5 or 10 page critiques at writing conferences by editors and agents. I highly recommend that. Too scary? Don’t be afraid of a novel critique.

In this episode I share why you don’t need to be afraid of a novel or book critique and 9 tips for dealing with the critique process.
