member Critique Groups

If you'd like a critique of an except of your work, please submit between 2500 – 3000 words and one to three questions you'd like the critiques to focus on and your story's genre and subgenre to president.gsrw@gmail.com

Excerpts will be read aloud over Zoom, by either the GSRW President (Kimber) or VP of Programs (Tiffany). Those present who are not the author of the work just read, will then give their critiques. The author will NOT be allowed to explain or defend their work, but they will be allotted time at the end of their critique to ask clarifying questions about the critiques.

Please note that this session WILL be recorded for GSRW members to view later, for three months. By submitting your work to be read and recorded as specified, you are agreeing to it. You are also agreeing to all the normal and expected risks of putting your work before an audience, however limited. And if you show up to the meeting, you are likewise agreeing for your part in it to be recorded. Also please note that GSRW does NOT control Zoom or its policies or actions.

To reiterate, please send your excerpt of 2500 – 3000 words, and one to three questions you'd like the critiques to focus on, to president.gsrw@gmail.com
