Writers Chat, hosted by Jean Wise, Johnnie Alexander, and Bethany Jett, is the show where we talk about all things writing, by writers and for writers!
“Because talking about writing is more fun than actually doing it.”

One Page Critiques
Critiquing is an important part of being a writer. Sometimes we are too close to catch mistakes and having a critique group or partner helps us sharper our writing skills. On today’s episode, the Writers Chat team will critique two pages submitted from different writers. The team shares their insight into the positives of these stories, as well as some things that need a little work. This episode is a good reminder of what to look for when critiquing someone’s story and could help you avoid common pitfalls. Check it out. You will surely be encouraged in your writing today.
