Hi there :) We have a section for critique called Share Your Work where you can create a thread of your own in the Memoir/Autobiography page once you've made 50 substantive posts elsewhere on the boards. Have a look at the FAQs, and read the Newbie's Guide to find out how the place works.

Hello, Professorjpj. McCardey's right on the money in directing you to the appropriate Share Your Work board and what's required to post your work for feedback. It's a really good idea to offer feedback to others as part of the fifty post requirement to post your own.

But a heads-up is in order, too. When people give critique, it's on the whole, which includes any grammar gaffes. So it's wise to make it as error-free as you can.

Maryn, pleased to meet you
