Writing Critique Submission Guidelines

  • On the second Monday of each month, the MB4 team will critique one author's 500 word maximum fictional writing sample. This could be the first page of your manuscript, flash fiction, or an excerpt from any work of fiction. Ideally, we'd love to see the first 500 words of your murder mystery. But what would you expect, from MB4?
  • We will attempt to critique everyone's work, taking each in the order received.
  • Writing samples may be sent to aaron.lazar@yahoo.com with “MB4 Critique” in the subject line.
  • Target word count is 500 words maximum, and must be in Microsoft Word format, in either a .doc or .docx document, attached to the email. 
  • All members of the MB4 team will each take a look at your work and wlll offer constructive feedback from our unique perspectives.
  • Be sure to check back each second Monday to see if your piece is up!

Sample Writing Crit Day comments will be monitored to ensure all suggestions are helpful and constructive!
