Comments on: Membership Guidelines http://www.migwriters.com A MG/YA Critique Group Sun, 27 Jun 2010 21:52:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc By: Katrina Lantz http://www.migwriters.com/membership-guidelines/comment-page-1/#comment-833 Katrina Lantz Thu, 10 Jun 2010 17:15:34 +0000 http://www.migwriters.com/?page_id=63#comment-833 I'm a little confused. Is this a critiquing site for six people? An entire web site for six people? I thought the groups of six meant each group could have six, but your response makes it sound like there is only one group of six. I'm asking because I think it's a great idea to have a place online where groups of six can get together and have accountability without huge numbers of critiquing partners. Is that what this page is? I’m a little confused. Is this a critiquing site for six people? An entire web site for six people?

My name is Allison Cohenour. I have always been interested in writing a novel. In fact, I have begun several in the past, but never seemed to make it past the first hundred pages. Professionally, I am a grant writer and editor, so I write and read others' work often, but, obviously advertising collateral and federal proposals aren't particularly "creative" writing. I would like to join a group of women who are more experienced in the genre of young adult literature. The novel I began in July is really the beginning for a series of books. I took all of the characters from my previous work and put them together into a combined plot that will, I hope, not only be an exciting story, but will increase readers' interest in literature and the history of art. I read your membership guidelines, and I am willing to agree to them, should you be willing to consider another member. I also really like the idea of weekly deadlines. A chapter a week is an attainable goal, and if other people are relying on your participation, then procrastination is not an option. (on my own, procrastination is often an option.) Thank you for your time and attention. Good luck with all of your writing, and I hope to hear from you soon. Allison Hello. My name is Allison Cohenour.
