&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The process for getting feedback on a manuscript can differ greatly from author to author. Young adult author Annie Sullivan follows a multi-stage process to get feedback on her novels. In the first stage, her manuscript goes to her sister, whom she trusts to catch her silly mistakes and provide general feedback. Her manuscript then goes to a group of critique partners, who are other authors in her genre that are in her network. In the next stage, she sends the revised manuscript off to her agent who also provides feedback...sometimes several pages worth of editing notes. In the final stage, the polished manuscript then goes to her assigned editor at the publishing house (if she has a publishing deal). The editor often has several more pages of editing notes for review, and then the manuscript is sent for final proofreading. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Throughout this whole process Sullivan gets a lot of feedback for consideration. Rather than compartmentalize editing like many authors do, she goes line-by-line, from beginning to end. This way, she can make sure everything in the story is working before she moves on. Sullivan advises authors to remember that although you might get all sorts of feedback from various sources in the editing process, the story is still yours in the end, and you get to decide what changes you make.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
