How To…

These instructions are intended to be clear. If they are not clear to you, please let me know so that I can attempt to clarify them.


How to submit feedback

  • Step 1 – Login
  • Step 2 – Navigate to the chapter you want to critique
  • Step 3 – Scroll to the bottom of the chapter to find the comments box.

Feedback is due when time slots booked begin. If you need an extension, no problem. Just let me know.

REMEMBER – I get spam bookings regularly, people who book slots but never actually provide feedback. Therefore, if this is our first swap, I will not even look at your work until I have received feedback from you.


How to format your comments/feedback

Some people like to format their comments. If you are one of them, here are some instructions.

When you are posting a comment for the first time, you can use the buttons at the top of the box to format your comments.

If you want to edit the formatting of the comments, you will have to use HTML as follows…

Login. Then use the tags in this table to format your comments. Save as normal. If you make a mistake, just click EDIT to fix.

How to find previous drafts

On every draft, you will find a number that looks like this (C001/D001). The C is the chapter. The D is the draft. So to find all of the previous drafts for Chapter 1, enter C001 in the search box on any page.

Note for above: If you put the backslash (/) in your search. The search results will return empty.
