There are still openings for this month's critique meeting. This opportunity isn't only for first chapters, you can bring other things, like synopsis, cover letter, query letter, middle chapters (with short set-up) or brainstorming needs. New members: If you think you might me interested in having your work critiqued, email Jackie and we'll talk about it. It's well worth it.

We will also have a discussion on POV (Point of View).  How to tell what POV you're in, how to tell when you've fallen out of it, and how to take your POV deeper.  Bring questions and problems and the group will discuss.

We will also have a short (I promise) presentation on characterization... actually you folks are going to critique a short portion of the class I'm giving on characterization, so we'll do a lot of critiquing this meeting. :-) I look forward to a full house!
