And for the rest of you...

Here's the schedule for the host blog critiques for all remaining entrants.  Please note that the actual dates will be announced prior to each critique session, along with specific submission instructions from each blog host.  Entrants are divided up by the original entry numbers you received when you entered the contest.

Please do not email me to ask when your turn will come or how to submit.  Everything will be announced here, on the blog (and I won't have the information until a week before each round, since that's how I've set it up with our host bloggers).

HOST BLOG CRITIQUE SCHEDULE:

Week of Jan 2:  Melodie Wright at foreverrewrighting.blogspot.com (adult #1-28)
                          Lauren Fobbs at empressawesome.blogspot.com (adult #29-56)
Week of Jan 9:  Ian Hiatt at relicsofprovidence.com (adult #57-84)
                          Alicia Gregoire at aliciagregoire.blogspot.com (adult #85-111)
Week of Jan 16: Leigh Ann Kopans at leighannkopans.com (YA/MG #1-33)
                          Sarah Pearson at emptywhitepages.blogspot.com  (YA/MG #34-66)
Week of Jan 30: Tami Moore at tavenmoore.com  (YA/MG #67-99)
                           PJ Schnyder at pjschnyder.com  (YA/MG #100-132)
Week of Feb 6:  Justin W. Parente at jwparente.com  (YA/MG #133-165)
                          Michael Broadway at cornelldevile.blogspot.com (YA/MG #166-198)

Each pair of blog hosts is going to coordinate their efforts so that their dates line up.  There will be no baker's dozen critiques during Secret Agent contest weeks, so we don't dilute our critiquing army.

Remember that the details for each week of critique will be posted ONE WEEK PRIOR.  So make note of the dates and keep an eye on the blog.

And yes, you may absolutely revise your entry prior to submitting it for critique to your host blog.

Any more questions?  Ask below!  And a HUGE THANK-YOU to our ten generous blog hosts!

  4. If we want to revise our entry prior to the critiques, do we just send you an email? Should we do that now, or wait until the details are posted for our round of critiques?

    Thank you so much for the opportunity! :)

  5. Rachel -- You don't have to send me anything. Once the details are posted for your week, you just follow the instructions and send your stuff. Entries are going straight to the host blogs, not to me.

  9. I'm looking forward to the experience, even though I'm also scared. "Nothing ventured, nothing gaine," right?
    I trust this environment of fellow writers - kind and honest.
    Thanks, Authoress, for a great resource and haven.

  10. Tried clicking on each of these blogs... relicsofprovidence was a 404, not found. cornelidevile gave me the message that the blog doesn't exist. Seriously?

  11. Ok, really dumb question here. I forgot my number. November was a bit of a wild month- so I'm not surprised. Is there anyway to find out?

    Thanks! And thanks for doing this everyone :)

  12. Yep! Send me the email address you used to enter, and I'll find you in my data base (also let me know whether it's adult or YA/MG).

  13. This is a great idea, and so sweet of the bloggers to do this.

    But yay, I don't have to participate. I just started querying and the requests are already rolling in. That definitely makes up for not making it into the auction. :D

  14. !!!

    Okay, officially, I'm excited again. Especially because of the line "you may absolutely revise your entry." Because I already did that, and I'm dying for more feedback on the new piece.

    Whee!! Thank you everyone that is making this possible!
