This past weekend I went on a writing retreat with my critique partners. Besides being a whole lot of fun, it was super productive. These folks won’t let me skim by with OK writing. They push me to be my best writer-self and that’s an invaluable tool to have in my kit. Writers can NOT write in a vacuum! If you find the right partners, you will be better. I promise.
This site looks pretty darn amazing. I hope you give it a try if you’re not working with other writers. Good luck!
