The Power Game of Critiquing: Or Who's Got the Power?

Our meeting for the month of February will focus on:

A look at the real dynamics of critiquing and why Do No Harm should be the first, second, and last rule anytime someone hands you a manuscirpt.

All writers know the importance of constructive feedback on our Works-in-Progress (WIP) but how do we give feedback in such a way as to be contstructive not destructive?  After all, writers have egos too!

Join us on Wed, Feb 10th at 7PM for the secrets on how to provide feedback that is helpful and constructive.  Our very own Lyndsay Longford will be sharing with us how to be the best we can be when critiquing each other.

Refreshments will be served starting at 6:30PM at the Naperville Chamber of Commerce conference room on the 3rd floor.  Located at 55 S. Main Street in the heart of downtown Naperville just above Hugo's Frog Bar.
