Pick 2-4 questions you will ask when you get your stories back.

Finish!

Have two people gotten your story? Goal accomplished. Still only have one person you trust? No worries. Think of some really good questions to ask them to make sure that feedback counts.

We’re going to ask what their favorite part was and what they would have done differently.

One of our reviewers asked for a Word Document copy so they can edit any typos they see as they go through it. We’re using the Microsoft Word edit tracking, which all of us are familiar with. Google Docs has shared editing that might also be helpful if you know how to put your story in a Google document to share. The easiest way is to print out the story and have them make any edits with a red pen, just like at school. But editing is optional. It’s more important that you have people read and give you feedback.
