October Surprise Critique

The October Surprise has been a hallmark of American elections for almost as long as there have been American elections! Whether political scandals, unexpected international crises, explosive criminal investigations, health issues, news leaks, natural or manmade disasters,
major policy announcements, or some combination of them all,
it seems October is always full of surprises.

What is NOT surprising is the huge amount of talent and creativity and love amongst the membership of the Cincinnati Fiction Writers.

So, in celebration of the pleasant surprise of finding the greatest
and most supportive group of like-minded persons ever,
we shall meet for virtual critique on the evening of Monday,
October 19th, 2026.

Both critique slots have been claimed at this time. We have submissions
from Deborah and Michael H. to evaluate.

If you'd like to have your own fiction critiqued at a future meeting, AND you have attended at least one critique night in the last three (3) months, then you may secure one of our future critique slots for ten (10) double-spaced pages (12 pt. Times New Roman) of your new or recently-edited fiction, which needs constructive feedback, by sending a PM to one of our CFW admins here at our Meetup page, or at our private Facebook group: (https://www.facebook.com/groups/215904102149512).

All others, we ask you to please attend and lend your ears and voices to the discussions. If you plan to attend: RSVP (very important!), Attend (very important), Hear the Pages, Share your Thoughts, and Help your fellow writers. All of these too: very important !!!
See you all then! Long Live Critique !!!
