a feedback inbox for all writers, at all stages of the process.

As a writer, receiving feedback is one of the most important steps of the journey. And while we have plenty of resources for beta reading and ARC reading, Page started to wonder how she could help writers with everything else—a query letter, a synopsis, blurbs, pitches, opening chapters…even short stories!

So she created her feedback inbox, A Friendly Look. Writers are free to submit any content under 50 pages, and Page will provide feedback as soon as possible. Creating a supportive, constructive community resource for ALL writers—that’s the goal.

Interested in submitting your work? Send an email to:

AFRIENDLYLOOK50@GMAIL.COM

  • Just send an email to afriendlylook50@gmail.com with your submission! No application, no cost, no delay.

    *Don’t forget the 50 in the email!

  • Google Docs is always the easiest for leaving comments, but Paige is also open to Word documents or PDFs!

    If you’re looking for specific feedback about a certain element of your submission, give her a heads up in the body of your email.

  • Absolutely! Paige is happy to take a look at multiple submissions from the same writer.

    You’re also free to send more iterations of the same submission after applying her feedback!

  • If you appreciate this resource, please share on your socials! Let’s spread the word.

    A Friendly Look also has a Venmo! Paige accepts all donations to her matcha fund to fuel more feedback :)
