Before you check what other writers have said, here are some examples of what a manuscript critique can look like for your first ten pages.

Writers' Quotes for Plus Package Critiques
These writers have been delighted with their writing critique, showing the depth of detail they have returned to them with a Plus or Ultimate Package.
And Kate was really pleased with her new Plus Package.
Many thanks for the thorough and professional critique - I really appreciate the level of detail and the specific examples you have provided. In my next revision, I will definitely aim to include more sensory details, deepen the emotional engagement and ensure I am showing, not telling.
Ashley had something similar to say about her Plus Package.
Thanks so much for sending this Plus Package critique through! I really appreciate the level of detail, and I'm sure it's going to improve my writing
Reid Linney loves the whole submission process.
What amazed me about the whole process, above all else, was the personal touch of the PTA team. It felt as though they were my personal advisors from the very beginning. I applied for a writing critique, which was exceptionally constructive. Their hand-holding through the entire process was superb. There's no question that they look to help every writer bring their absolute best game to the competition. They certainly did for me. I can't thank them enough.
Brenda was excited that her plus package ten-page manuscript critique was so encouraging.
I can't (even though I should be able to if I call myself a writer) express how much this means. So helpful to enable me to polish my novel. I'm beyond grateful for the encouragement and suggestions for improvement, all of which I will shortly work on. I've found the actionable feedback to be spot on. Many thanks.
As I said with the first critique, this second critique is also brilliant. The encouragement means so much, and the suggestions for improvement are spot-on. These are things I can and will apply to the rest of my novel. This is amazing value for money since I get to enter the competition, too.
Prasha found her ten-page manuscript critique incredibly valuable.
Thank you so much for your feedback. I truly appreciate the time and effort you put into it. Your suggestions are incredibly valuable to me, and I found them both helpful and easy to follow. I’m looking forward to implementing these changes and continuing with the story.
