Online Writing Clubs
« on: July 22, 2007, 05:26:35 AM »
Does anybody know of any online writing clubs?  It seems like a good idea for me.  I just need one to critique my stories so I can have a chance to publish one.

Try Critters. Tons of members (including some pros), completely free, diplomatic, constructive and very helpful. I'm on hiatus there, but hoping to get back into it soon. :)
But I'm still right here,
    giving blood, keeping faith,
and I'm still right here.

I second Critters. I've sent at least a dozen items through there, and every one has benefitted from it. There is also an on-and-off-again critique group that has spawned from these boards. It's located elsewhere, but pm Mickey Finn if you want the info. Or dig around for the thread. Maybe I can find it later.
