Points to note:
Joining the Garden of Neuro, a Women’s Only Community and becoming an active member will really help you develop your poetry and artwork. Members are encouraged to ask for and offer feedback using a tag “Critique Me” for art, poetry, and bios.
The editorial team will review poetry and make suggestions as needed. This is not to change your work, but to enhance it.
Optional Feedback on Your Writing
You may choose to receive editorial feedback on your piece. We will provide a global letter discussing the strengths of the writing and the recommended focus for revision. Our aim is to make our comments actionable and encouraging. These letters are written by the Project Director and/or Editors of Garden of Neuro Publishing. A significant portion of the editorial letter fees goes to our feedback editor and team, according to the rates established by GNI.
