Have you ever wanted a group of your peers to look at your work and offer you feedback? Well, you’re in the right spot! RMFW offers regular volunteer-led critique groups for members interested in just that! Critiques include technical advice and other writers’ opinions regarding characters, plot, dialogue, and suitability for the marketplace. We host online groups as well as a number of groups around the front range and western slope of Colorado. To learn more about critique groups and deciding whether to participate in one, check out our Critique Group Guidelines page.
RMFW works hard to create an environment where critique groups can thrive. For many authors, their critique group is as much about community as improved writing.
Have some extra time you can spare? We are in need of Critique Group Leaders/Moderators! Boulder, North Denver, Westminster, Arvada, Broomfield, Lafayette, Longmont, Fort Collins, Golden, and Castle Rock – just to name a few. Please contact critique@rmfw.org if you are interested.
