Critique Service

Would you like to break into the women’s magazine market, give yourself a better chance at winning competitions or simply add that elusive something to short stories or novels which brings them up to publication standard?
We are now offering a critique service from Linda Lewis, one of the top selling writers of women’s magazine stories. Linda (who also writes as Catherine Howard) has sold almost one hundred stories in the last three years to a variety of magazines, including Woman’s Weekly, My Weekly, Take-a-Break, Take-a-Break’s Fiction Feast, Best, Yours and The Weekly News. She also has a column in the New Writer where she tries to solve readers’ writing related problems, and has done well in a number of short story competitions.
Linda’s website is at www.akacatherinehoward.weebly.com
Linda will provide an in-depth critique and advice on how to break into your chosen magazine market.  You will need to identify the market your story is targeted towards and post or email your story to Vanda Inman’s Write Space.  Cheques need to be sent by post and made out to Write Space. If you are unsure of the total cost or have any queries please contact vanda@writespace.co.uk or telephone for more information.

         Online/distance learning
  
Many people find it difficult to attend courses and distance learning is ideal for anyone unable to attend a writing course or group, whether due to pressure of work, commitments or inability to reach the destination.
   Distance learning courses give people the opportunity to work through exercises at their own pace, receive feedback and interaction by letter, email or telephone with a tutor.
