Creative Writing Review And Feedback
Get detailed, professional feedback on your creative writing from Dr Christina Clover — a published author and PhD in Creative Writing with over a decade of experience mentoring writers of all levels.
Whatever your level of writing experience, feedback can help reassure you that you’re on the right track, or bring a fresh pair of eyes to a project to suggest improvements. Christina can help progress your project, be it a short story, novel, university assignment, or something else entirely.
What is Creative Writing Review?
Creative Writing Review is a one-off feedback service designed to help you improve a specific piece of creative writing. You send us your work, and Christina will read it carefully and provide:
- Thorough, personalised feedback on your strengths and areas for development
- Suggested edits and improvements (line edits and broader structural notes)
- Advice on elements such as voice, structure, pacing, and character
- Recommended reading or exercises tailored to your goals
This service is ideal for those who want expert input on their work without the need for live sessions or mentoring over time.
You’re welcome to use the service for a single piece or book multiple pieces for review, such as a short story collection or ongoing project. For multi-piece packages, please get in touch via email to discuss your needs – custom pricing can then be provided based on your project.

All of our courses include personalised written feedback from Dr Christina Clover, a published author and creative writing lecturer. Feedback is designed to help you understand your strengths and continue developing your work.
After purchasing, you'll receive course information and access details. Courses are completed online through guided modules with activities and assignments that you can work through at your own pace.
Yes. While everyone brings different strengths and experiences, creative writing is a craft that can be developed. Techniques such as character development, dialogue, structure, and editing can all be learned and strengthened through practice.
This is one of the most common challenges writers face. Starting is often easier than continuing. Structured guidance, manageable goals, and regular feedback can help writers build momentum and complete projects.
Many writers continue onto more in-depth courses, mentoring, or larger projects. The aim is not simply to complete one course, but to help you continue growing as a writer.
