How can I get critique on a novel I’m writing?
I’m currently writing a novel, but have grown too close to my work, which makes me unsure about the quality of my actual writing. I’ve asked family members to critique the first page or so to see if I’m on the right track, but I’m not sure if they’re answering honestly or if they’re sparing me.
I’m too embarrassed to ask friends, professors, etc, and I’m a little nervous about actually posting it anywhere online (what with it being easy to steal and all).
Does anybody have any ideas?
