Don’t just ask, *“Is my story good?”*
Ask:*“What does a reader feel while reading it?”*

A strong story should make readers feel something curiosity, excitement, tension, sadness, or joy.

Before publishing, get a fresh reader’s perspective. Sometimes another reader can spot what the writer has become too close to see. 

*Writers: What emotion do you want readers to feel from your story?*
