StoryADay Critique Week

It can be hard to find a great critique group, but it usually works out well when

  • You trust the organizer
  • The group has clear goals and a clear timeline
  • Everyone is writing the same thing (in this case: short stories)
  • The group has a clear code of conduct and an active leader.

I run critique groups three times a year, and you're invited!
