About the Group
I would like to create a group where writers can share work they would like to get feedback on. We will be critiquing the work as a whole, not nit picking grammatical errors (I am violently opposed to the Oxford comma). Whether you've been writing forever or just getting started, I am interested in writers who are serious about their writing but don't take themselves too seriously. If we're not having fun during these sessions, we're missing the mark. I write mostly narrative non fiction, personal essays, memoir, political/topical essays, with only an occasional foray into poetry. Everyone is welcome, but the focus will be on non fiction.
Finally, although these meetings will be conducted solely by Zoom, if anyone lives in the area (New York, NJ, PA, CT), and would like to meet up in person, that would be fun, too.
Meets Bi-Weekly, time and day TBD, approximately 90 minutes. Zoom link will be provided to members.
