Feedback and Advice:

Where can I get feedback on my writing? 

Townhouse is a great resource for peer support and feedback. We recommend taking a look at the Beta Readers group where you can find critique partners and request beta readers. The Feedback Friday forum is also a good option; here, you can post short responses to weekly writing prompts and receive feedback from your peers. 
​
Please read the guidelines pinned to any Townhouse forum or group carefully before posting. We recommend being generous with your own feedback, as this can help to build connections in the community and makes it more likely that other writers will return the favour.
​
Premium Members can submit short (400 word) writing samples to our monthly Critique Club live event. We may also run other live events with critique/feedback elements through the year. Premium Members can stay up to date by viewing our Member Events page. For more information, please view our Live Events FAQs. 
​
As a small team, we unfortunately cannot offer feedback on unsolicited writing samples. If you are looking for a review of your full manuscript or opening pages, you may be interested in exploring our paid editorial services.

Where can I get feedback on my submission pack?

Premium Members can receive one free query letter review per year of membership. For more information on this, please see our Expert Member Advice and Query Letter Review FAQs.

​
As a small team, we unfortunately cannot offer feedback on synopses or writing samples. If you are looking for a review of your submission pack you may be interested in exploring the Agent One-to-One service or our paid editorial services.
