This is a really fun one! Amanda and Ed from the Not Quite Write podcast run flash fiction competitions that flip traditional writing advice on its head — and their “daredevil” critiques have become a favourite feature for brave writers.


We talked about:

• How “kill your darlings” became a writing comp prompt

• Why tough feedback beats empty praise

• Blind judging, beta readers, and growth through critique
