Fall Critique Workshop - Please read the rules & send us your work!

It's time for the BVWG Fall Critique Workshop. If you want a chance to have your work critiqued, please read and adhere to these rules:

1. NOTE** Dues paying members will have the first opportunity to submit their work. We have four slots available. If open slots remain, we will take non-dues paying members.
2. FORMAT: Double-spaced. New Times Roman font. 1 inch margins with page numbers. This simple, straight-forward formatting is standard for many journals.
3. WORD COUNT: 3500 word count limit.
4. CONTENT: We're open to all genres and literary works. We will not take work that contains gratuitous sex or violence.
5. Submit your work to bvwg.submissions@gmail.com Please send your work as an attached PDF or Word file. The deadline for submissions is SUNDAY, OCTOBER 5th, 2025!
6. A Critique Workshop focuses on the strengths of the submissions as well as areas that could be made stronger with suggested changes. The goal is for meeting attendees to read the submissions in advance, make suggestions for the writer, and come prepared to discuss ways to help the writer make the work better.

The authors are encouraged to bring extra paper copies of their stories in case there are attendees who have not read the stories. More detailed information will be sent out via an email to all our Meetup members once submission selections are made. Thank you. Hope see your work and see you in October.
