Here’s what two
writers had to say about their 2016 CompleteMS assessment.
"The assessor has shone a light on the issues with my manuscript that were holding me back. I couldn't see it clearly because I had got caught up in the details but the honest and also encouraging summary has shown me what I need to work on. I knew it wasn't quite right and now I know how to fix it."
"After the lone process of writing a novel it was so refreshing to have an experienced eye on my work. It really breathed life back into the redrafting process. I am excited to see what happens next.”
To apply for this professional development you need to be a member of the NZ Society of Authors, membership is $120 per annum. NZSA encourages applications from Māori, Pacific and Asian writers.
The CompleteMS Programme is made possible thanks to funding from Creative New Zealand.
