Online Critique Group for Writing in Rhyme Has Open Slots

November 20th, 2008 by Jon

Just got this e-mail, so I’m passing it along:

“Rhyming Critters 2″ has ten membership slots, of which eight are currently filled.

Our members are generally consider themselves to be at the Intermediate level.  All have been writing for a number of years in different formats (poetry, prose, plays, music) and for different audience age levels.

In the group, we write and critique exclusively in rhyme.  That’s how we got started and we have retained that unique format.  Members can ask for critiques of other work but any critiques of prose or regular poetry are done off-line.  The time commitment to the group is usually around a couple hours per week at most.

For our critiques, we exchange rhymes via e-mail, usually about one or two rhymes monthly per person.  Critiques are also provided to the author via e-mail.   We have an open recruitment for our vacancies - I keep a waiting list of interested candidates who I contact as vacancies occur—we’ve been running one or two vacancies per year, usually resulting from pressing family priorities or the good fortune of extra work related to getting a book manuscript accepted for publication.

Interested? Contact the group’s moderator Bill Kirk at rnbkirk@aol.com
