Hello there folks,

I hope this doesn't count as spam, if so, many apologies, that isn't my intention. I'm a MA publishing student writing a dissertation that has a focus on new writers and thought it'd be really interesting to hear some direct responses from aspiring novelists. I wondered if anyone would be so kind as to fill out my short questionaire? After it's closed, I'll write a summary of the results for anyone who's interested to read, hopefully can provide some useful and insightful research for all involved! If you have any questions let me know.
