LW Share Stories – Spring

Hello, awesome Life Writers!

 

Feedback sessions: Fourth Tuesday of every month @ 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time

To obtain the best possible review, please share your story with your designated feedback group members at least a week in advance. Your Feedback group assignments will be listed on each month’s Share Stories page a week in advance of the meeting.

We are all interested in each other and the stories each person writes. If you care to, share your work here so any Life Writers member can enjoy your work.

Count on your buddies for feedback for sure. However, this is a way we can share our efforts with those not in our groups as well. Austin Kleon talks about the importance of sharing our work in his book Show Your Work. He says, “Creativity is always, in some sense, a collaboration, the result of a mind connected to other minds.”

So, here’s your opportunity to show your work. Include a paragraph, a page, or a couple of pages.

Due 2/21/23

Due 3/21/23

Due 4/18/23

Due 5/16/23

Step 1 – Prepare your story for feedback as a Word document or .pdf file of not more than 1,000 words (four double-spaced pages).

Step 2 – Click on the button above that corresponds to the current month.

Step 3 – Upload your story in the comments box on the current month’s page.

Step 4 – Feel free to enjoy the stories of your fellow Life Writers as you’re able. Then, if you care to, leave the authors a note of encouragement.

Feel uncertain about receiving or giving other writers feedback? Visit the Tools and Resources page for more detailed instructions and a video of a practice feedback session.

Please know that by submitting a story for review and asking to be put into a feedback group, you are agreeing to complete a feedback form and edit each story to the best of your ability and send it to your feedback partners.
