Writers Workshop: Read and Critique

Read and critique is a way – possibly the only way – for writers to hear how their writing sounds to others. The thoughtful, objective and constructive feedback you receive will tell you how your writing is being perceived, what is working and what needs additional work. Read and critique also enables writers to learn more about the craft through the careful reading of others’ work. In addition to the weekly review of manuscripts, mini-lessons inspired by the work at hand will be given by the instructor. Participants will be required to bring copies of manuscript pages of work-in-progress.

Note: Open to all levels, beginner to advanced, including writers of long and short fiction, screenplays, plays, creative non-fiction, and memoirs.
