The unheard words of new writers...

Writing can be a solitary affair but you're not alone, the feedback of others may help

Your Write to Feedback

Many new writers seek feedback on their work - as part of the process of developing their craft. But you may have found considered, independent feedback hard to come by. Those near and dear can be great - family and local friends - but you may be reluctant to impose your interests on them or feel that emotional bonds may come between you, them and constructive feedback.

To help unheardwords has set up Your Write to Feedback: a free service for writers who would appreciate the opportunity to have their creative writing reviewed; and an opportunity for fellow writers or interested others to encourage new writing and writers by becoming reviewers. Interested?

If you’re a writer seeking feedback, see For Writers:

If you’re interested in encouraging creative writing talent by becoming a reviewer, see For Reviewers:

For Writers
If you're seeking feedback on your work and write to feedback sounds like a good idea to you, simply send your submission to editor@unheardwords.com (editor@unheardwords.com), subject ‘Write to Feedback’. Before submission please read guidelines below:

Guidelines for submitting to Your Write to Feedback:

By submitting your work you are giving permission for that work to be passed on to one of unheardwords reviewers (see below). You are not entering any contract and copyright of the work you submit remains yours.

Submissions should be no greater than 1,000 words in length (about 3 one sided sheets of standard paper). This may mean sending just an extract.

All forms of creative writing are welcomed.

Feedback is not guaranteed - and relies on those wonderfully self-less individuals who sign-up to give their time to review your creative endeavours. About Reviewers: reviewers are self-selecting (they put themselves forward). They have applied to become reviewers and have been accepted on the basis of their willingness to read submitted work and provide open, honest, constructive feedback.

For Reviewers
If you would like to be considered as a reviewer: send your details; email address and name to writein@unheardwords.com (writein@unheardwords.com), subject ‘Like to Review’.

Also, please provide a brief explanation of why you’d like to take on the role of reviewer. For example; Do you write yourself? Are you interested in new writing? Are you a long-serving and interested reader?

Your application will be carefully considered and we will get back to you shortly. And, thanks for being willing to help.
