A quality critique can have more influence on an author’s evolving
craft than any other aspect in learning to write—including (dare, I say)
reading. Agents and editors alike question prospective authors on their use of
critique groups. Writing contests across the nation have renovated their
competitions, opting for professional critiques instead of cash prizes.
Critiques are, and will continue to be, the driving force
behind published authors. Even with my acceptance of the presidential
nomination, Writers of Kern will provide high caliber critique groups—but we
need your help.
Volunteers, you are needed. There are plenty of
opportunities to serve, emailing prospective authors, organizing dates and
times, checking on new critique groups—whether you have five seconds or five
hours, you are needed.
Email for more information.
