SUMMARY:Speculative Fiction Critique Group (In-Person)
DESCRIPTION:Write sci-fi\, fantasy\, or any kind of speculative fiction? SAWG’s Monday night Speculative Fiction Critique Group might be the place for you! \nWe meet every Monday from 7-9 pm and are open only to current members of SAWG because we do not meet in a public location. To join SAWG\, please click here! \nHow Does It Work? \nSAWG’s Spec-Fic critique meetings are small-group focused with a rolling submission order (where everyone takes turns reading their material week-to-week). Two pieces are read every week\, and there will be a table read\, verbal critique\, and a round-table discussion section. Submissions are handed out a week in advance to give members plenty of opportunity to preview the text and make line annotations and/or write critique letters if they so desire. \nIf you are already a member and would like more information on our location or a copy of our full format\, submission guidelines\, and FAQ — feel free to request permission to join our private channel on the Discord\, email sanantoniowgbusiness@gmail.com\, or get in touch with a board member at one of our monthly meetings!
