This group gathers to offer both critique and inspiration to new and experienced writers of all genres! Please come join us!

Format of meeting: First hour of the meeting is dedicated to a writing critique. You should download the files to be read/critiqued each weeks from the files page.

After the first hour of writing critique we "talk shop" about any ideas, issues or problems we might have with our writing, share resources, motivate, cajole and encourage each other in our individual writing endeavors.


Submissions for writing critique: Each piece should be uploaded to the Files page and should not be more than 10 pages double spaced and 12 pt. font. Shorter pieces are more than acceptable. Please upload the file at least two days before the meeting to give people a chance to read the piece.

Please make sure you read the Writing Critique Guide, which can be found on the Files page, for tips on providing constructive feedback.


Please RSVP with confirmation, along with your writing area of interest and/or experience. New member are welcome and encouraged to come check us out!

Best,

Ryan, Jenny and the rest of the gang.

      “Hey congratulations on finishing your book! Tell me more, what is it about? I recently finished a novel, a love story set in northern california. The first ten pages are in our files section. Like you, I can't make every weekly meeting, so maybe we could chat and encourage each other via email. Lisa”
