Nonfiction Nation • Last activity 02/May

Hello! This is a group for members working on any form of writing that falls in the realm of creative nonfiction: memoir, essay, etc. We will begin with one round of submissions and critiques. You'll submit a piece plus critique the work of your group-mates. We'll finish with a debrief video call. By the end, you will have fresh insights on reader reactions to your work. Those who wish to remain in the group on an ongoing basis will work together to develop a schedule and group structure.  

This group will be capped at 6 participants, so you will be responsible for no more than 5 critiques. Submissions are 5000 words or less. If you are writing a book, please share a synopsis of your work as a submission note when you submit. This needn't be fancy. It's just to give your readers an idea of where the work will go, which is helpful for commenting on narrative-level issues.
