Critique Partner Speed Dating - MG & YA

Critique Partner Speed Dating - MG & YA

Webinar Date and Time:

Saturday, February 21 at 12-1pm

Prior to the event:

• Complete your “dating profile” at https://forms.gle/gfDLs1xXws4KaUpK6 so that the event organizers can match you with other creators who might be a good fit!
• Complete and submit your profile by Feb 14 / Mar 14 (one week prior to the event).

During the event:

• Participants will attend a zoom meeting to meet fellow creators in your category. With the help of facilitators, share your “dating profile” and get to know other folks who are also looking for critique partners.
• The facilitator will also share best practices (and e-mail templates!) for following up with potential critique partners.

After the event:

• Participants will receive a list of names, e-mail addresses, and genre/ age categories of their fellow participants. You may NOT share this information outside the event group, but you MAY contact fellow participants if you are interested in forming a critique group.
