with Brooke McIntyre

Group started

Participants in Lorin Oberweger's Deep Scene class may also sign up for a critique from Lorin. Writers have two options for critiques:

1. Submit the first 3000 words of your novel. 

2. Submit up to 3000 words of your novel from anywhere in your manuscript. If you do this, also share a couple of paragraphs to give us context for your story. These paragraphs should summarize what has happened in the book before the sample pages you're sharing. 

Lorin will critique your work, focusing on elements of scene, along with other comments.

Participants in this group may also elect to exchange peer critiques.
