Essay Contests
So I'm working on an essay for the Real Simple Magazine contest....if I want to get some critical feedback and help, would I go under share your work or on here? I know share your work requires 50 posts, and I'm not quite there yet.
I don't want to splatter myself all over here just to make my 50, so I'll keep plugging along at my pace. Anyone share essays before in this thread? Should I PM someone? Thanks for your help....

Is this the contest?

So then with fifty posts what SYW thread would I use to get feedback on an essay?

I'd be willing to gloss over your essay, crazywritingmom. I'm a magazine journalist, and dabble into essay writing myself once in a while.
