This is too exciting. I love it Debbie. It makes me wish we could really get together and chat about our writing with chocolate and coffee. Sigh.... But having this group is amazing and perfect for my life right now. I live in Korea and have two little ones at home so working with a online group allows me to take time for my critique buddies without having to get a babysitter! Critiquing opens my eyes to different writing styles and shows me what works and what doesn't. My fellow writers are always pushing me and stretching me beyond what I would have done on my own. I'm always amazed at the difference my work is after its passed through MiG Writers. But most importantly, I've found our group to be encouraging and supportive. I’m in a cartoon!

Like Debbie, I find it easier to belong to an online critique group at this point in my life. I also enjoy writing critiques -- I'm able to think carefully about what I want to say and, yes, revise my critique before I offer it, to make sure I'm making myself clear or striking the right tone. I feel incredibly lucky to be part of this group! Well, I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’m expecting an invite to your book launches…

It's been a lifelong dream of mine to be in a cartoon. You fulfilled a lifelong dream! I'm officially thrilled. I haven't met any of my crit partners face to face yet. We're international, which is an aspect I love. It gives me a better perspective, I think. I love Rochester NY but it's valuable to me to have critiques from people with different experiences. And I think we'll get a chance to meet someday! Debbie thank you so much! It’s been a lifelong dream of mine to be in a cartoon. You fulfilled a lifelong dream! I’m officially thrilled.
