Which works / Safe works: If you plan to link to something like an AO3 or ff.net profile, or journal, please say which works you are or aren't interested in getting feedback on (ie, anything complete and written after 2016? Anything except for specific "safe" works?)
Feedback questions: If you have general questions about your writing that could apply to any of your works, or, if you are asking for feedback on specific works or extracts, please include any questions you have! Ie: does the ending work, were the characters' motivations clear, did the twist make sense in retrospect, did you like the descriptions...
Tagging and content: If you want feedback on unpublished pieces, or pieces that don't otherwise have content tags, please say what fandoms they're in and also include notes on whether they include major character death, gore/violence, rape, noncon, or dubcon, underage sex, incest, or other content that may be offputting. I may also send you questions about more specific content before matching you with your concrit-givers.
What level of feedback: Pick which describes you:
1. "Direct criticism is fine; don't be afraid to be blunt"
3. "I'm in the middle; please practice your tact along with your insight."
5. "I prefer gentle feedback; don't lie to me, but please be kind."
