Confirmation emails should be today!! Let’s hope they arrive early in the day. As for sharing, the forums are a lot smaller in later rounds but it’s always nice to have something to read at this stage in the comp to get a feel for the kinds of stories that are out there this late in the game. But personally I’m in the boat on too. My story went kind of dark. I am pretty aware it’s not my best writing and doesn’t match the quality of my first two. Thus, I’m not sure how useful it will be to get a bunch of feedback on something I know has flaws…. But I won’t leave my group mates alone if they share, and the forums are my favorite part of NYCM, so I’ll think it over! I will have to do the dreaded thing and reread my story....

Thank you for your reply! I feel completely the same - my last story feels 'not there yet' but perhaps critical feedback could help improve it. I did the dreaded 're-read' and I can tell you it was a bad place to go. Safe travels!

It actually
Makes me feel better to see others feel the same - since submitting I’ve been ruminating on all the ways I could have done better on my story - which I suppose is value in itself - but definitely makes me more hesitant to post. I may anyway, since sharing my writing is something I struggle with and I’m trying to get better at, but it may be with a hefty disclaimer for all the things I already know are wrong with it 😂 Like… JUST IMAGINE I INCLUDED THIS DETAIL THAT TIES IT ALL TOGETHER.
