The Evanston Writers Group is an eclectic mix of writers, ranging from beginners to long time professionals, and reflect all ages, genders and backgrounds.
We have members who publish literary fiction, creative non-fiction, children's literature, romance, hard-boiled crime, memoir, travel, poetry, humor and assorted forms of the unclassifiable.
Because we are fearless and a little nuts, we open our minds to anyone and any thing. We'll bend and stretch ourselves like soft licorice to dig your stuff. Most importantly, we'll help you get it published.
There is no censorship at the Evanston Writers Group.

EEW Long Developmental Critique Group
Hilton Orrington/Evanston, 1710 Orrington Avenue, Evanston, IL, USHowdy all,
Congratulations to Rose Chord – the first to submit to the Evanston Writers’ Workshop Long Development Group.
The mission of the Long Development Group is to provide feedback and critique of a longer, more developed piece of 10,000 to 30,000 words. To remind those interested in participating: the goal of this group is to analyze and give more overview-type feedback (e.g., plot, premise, structure, consistent voice, etc.)
Rose’s submission is approximately 30,000 words. For those who wish to read it and comment (whether or not you are able to come to the meeting), you can access it here:
