ONGOING / MONTHLY - NEW! Calling all Novelists! Do you write middle-grade or young-adult fiction? Let’s meet up to support, share, and inspire one another on our writing journeys. We will meet monthly to discuss various writing craft topics and critique works in progress. We will use the book The Magic Words by Cheryl B. Klein to guide our discussions. You are welcome to read the monthly “assigned” chapter in The Magic Words or just show up and join in the discussion. In July we will discuss chapter 10 in The Magic Words. Feel free to share techniques that you find helpful for developing plot. You are encouraged to share 3-4 pages from a work in progress. Members only. Registration is required.
ONGOING / MONTHLY - Come join us! Yes, you! Each month we hold a virtual (ZOOM) peer-to-peer critique for our manuscripts. Picture books & short works are common, but all are welcome! Register on our registration page. NOTE: If you usually join us for MANUSCRIPT CRITIQUE night and are an MG/YA writer, we now also host NOVEL CRAFT & CRITIQUE nights. You are always welcome at both! Members only. Registration required.
