Craft Discussion

About this event

Welcome to the inaugural Madison West Writers Group craft discussion! Every meeting will **have 3 submission slots** where a writer can submit an item for discussion (more info on eligible items below) **and we will end with a general discussion** on the story outline of the week, presented by a member. For submission slots, you can present your question and context/content for 15 minutes; then we transition to discussion. **All members are expected to review and read submissions before session to make the most use of our time!** Rules for submissions on items: * include your specific question for the group * include your goals for the project: genre, audience, the feels/themes of your story * your time is limited! Avoid having to cover your entire story outline in your session by focusing on a specific part of it. * when you present an outline, condense it into bullet points! And then condense it again! We want plenty of time for discussion. Potential items for discussion include: * Specific story outline segment review * Feedback on dialogue or action scenes (please keep word count to 1500 or lower) * Feedback on the beginning or end of the story (limited word count OR bullet point outline) * Worldbuilding questions * (Focused) Character arc review * Focused critique sessions on other craft elements. * Other inquiries can be directed to Marly. Please submit it as a Google doc in the comments. If you are new to MWWG, it is recommended to attend a session before you submit! All genres welcomed. Thank you to all participants for making this discussion possible! Room number TBA
