Critique Camp
Three Week Critique Camp supported by Writers of Kern
Critique 101 (for self-edit and critique group participation)
Hone your craft by sharpening
your critique tools, for yourself and your critique groups.
- The importance of establishing character, setting, and voice on page one.
- How the opening image or scene should relate to a story's overall structure.
- How to introduce story questions that entice rather than confuse.
- How to avoid clichéd openings.
- What starting in in medias res really means—and, more importantly, what it doesn't.
Held:
9/13/2016 at 6:00 p.m.
Cost: Free

- This Webinar is a workshop with author’s names withheld (to create a safe environment)
- Register early, as all attendees will have an assignment to
do in preparation for the first session. Registered attendees will
receive the assignment no later than September 1, 2016. Those who register
after that date will receive the assignment as soon as they register.
- When workshop list is filled, a waitlist will open.
Workshop Description:
Each attendee must submit the
first five pages of his or her novel and will be expected to actively workshop
other attendees’ opening pages within the provided workshopping guidelines.
We’ll discuss our works-in-progress and help each other brainstorm various
possible entry points in relation to each work’s overall story structure.
During the last session, I will
select a MIP (Most Improved Pages) winner.
Extras:
During the last
session, there will be Query Questions. We’ll talk about the submission process
(life after critiques).
