Hi folks, I feel so incredibly lucky to be listed as highly commended for VIVA LA NOVELLA X and grateful to have the opportunity to receive a manuscript assessment from the judge, Jasmin McGaughey. It’s such a rare gift to receive professional feedback on your MS, and this is a MS I have really been searching for guidance with to take it to where it needs to be. I honestly was about to drawer it, as I’ve started on my next novel, but now I’m really looking forward to seeing where I can take it. Feeling optimistic, hopeful, and so lucky because, for me, it’s up there with being shortlisted for the Vogel all so long ago now, with the extra bonus of being offered expert guidance. Massive congrats to fellow listers and to all who keep persisting and sharing their words. X
