Get Feedback While You Write!
Sometimes authors pay me to edit their 100k-word novel, only to get the dreaded words: NEEDS A FULL REWRITE.
In the 15 years I've been editing novels and memoirs, the number 1 request I get is for feedback DURING the writing process.
So I asked myself, what if I can fix those little issues before they become big ones?
What if other authors could join me and provide their unique insight as well?
InkCrafters Writers Critique Group was born!
Is this the online critique group you've been looking for?
I made a walkthrough of exactly why I created this community and what it looks like.
"I can already see how my writing has leveled up for my next novel!"

A catchy title, a brief description, and a Google Docs link. 2000 words at a time. Up to 3 times a week. Imagine how much you'll improve!
Contribute your feedback to the other posts! What worked and what didn't? Would you keep reading if you'd bought this book? Your community members want to hear from you!
You'll find kindred spirits to keep you motivated as you write, who understand the struggles of being a successful author. Dedicated conversation rooms are so you can strike up conversations!

What I like about the group is the level of passion and engagement. There is a sense we're all rooting for each other, that we're vested in each other's success.

InkCrafters has graduated my writing style from minor league to the professional level. This community is a necessity, not a luxury if you wish to excel in your writing career!

Memoir
I've been in 6 critique groups, some in-person and others through Zoom. InkCrafters is simply at a higher level than the others. It's inspiring (and fun) to be among like-minded artists!
Imagine 90 days from now....
A completed first draft
An understanding of self-publishing
A solid blurb for Amazon
Getting clarity on your target reader
Having a community of experienced authors
All this and more is possible when you have access to the kind of guidance and advice most people have to pay thousands in coaching fees for.
questions
Frequently asked
What genres are welcome?
All genres are welcome! We have dedicated spaces for fiction and nonfiction, but may create dedicated niche rooms as we grow. If you write on the wild side, we ask that content warnings are included.
What if I Don't Use Microsoft Word?
We are a Google Docs shop, meaning Macs and PCs, iOS and Android all work well. It also means no need to upload or download documents. It's all in your browser!
What if I don't agree with the feedback?
YOU are the author, meaning if you get feedback that doesn't vibe with your style, then that's all good. We are here to support you and make you better, not turn YOUR book into OUR book :) InkCrafters is all about respect.
