Critique

Click to learn about our critique style.

We meet on the second Saturday of each month to critique each other’s work in progress, hear the latest updates from the writing world, celebrate our successes, and offer encouragement.

Only members may be critiqued. 

Non-members are invited to observe for two free visits. Observing twice gives you the opportunity to determine if we’re the group for you and learn our system. 

You do not have to wait to join, however. You can visit www.word-weavers.com and register under our chapter name (Word Weavers Madison).

11:00-11:30  Register your critique piece and Group Meeting
