1-on-1 Private Feedback Session

Feeling stuck on your draft? Looking for a firm but gentle editorial hand to guide your work? Need a fresh perspective to keep you writing? Book a 50-minute private session with one of the Midwives of Invention!

Submit up to 2,000 words of your writing, along with your questions for us, and we’ll arrive to the session prepared to guide you to the next phase of the writing process. This will be extra useful for writers who have taken one of our workshops in the past (because we’ll have a shared vocabulary to draw on!), but anyone can book a session.

What we offer

  • A 50-minute Zoom conversation in which we offer thoughtful feedback on up to 2,000 words of your writing

  • Responses to your questions about the work

  • Tools, tips, and resources to help you push through to the next phase of the writing process

What we do not offer

  • Licensed therapy

  • General advice about your writing practice or career

  • Line edits or comments in the draft itself

Please note that your 1:1 session will be with ONE of us, not both. Our availability varies, so feel free to open both of our calendars in different tabs and find the time that works best for you.

When you book your 1-on-1, you’ll fill out a brief form and upload your up-to-2,000-word draft. Your email confirmation will contain the zoom link you’ll use for your meeting.

Meetings can be rescheduled until 48 hours before the start time. It is your responsibility to sign in to the zoom on time. If you are late, we’re happy to meet for the remainder of the time, but we cannot add additional time.
