Howe Writing Group & Howe Critique Group

The Howe Writing Group

Are you a writer looking to connect with other writers? Join our biweekly writing group! Run by a traditionally published author, this will be a comfortable, welcoming environment where you can share your work, get feedback from the group, and occasionally write to prompts. 

All writing is welcome: fiction, non-fiction, poetry, essays, short story, and more. If you have writing you would like to share, please arrive with six printed copies of your work (limited to 2500 words or ten double-spaced pages). 

The Howe Writing Group will meet in person every other Monday from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m. in the Aldrich Room


The Howe Critique Group

Are you a writer who dreams of one day seeing your book for sale at your local bookstore? Join our biweekly professional critique group! Run by a traditionally published author, this group is intended for writers who have the goal of finishing their manuscript, querying agents, and submitting to publishers. We’ll critique each other’s work, discuss everything from novel and scene structure to pitching and querying, and gain insights into the state of the publishing industry. 

All fiction genres welcome. Arrive with four printed copies of your work limited to 2500 words or ten double-spaced pages. 

The Howe Critique Group will meet in person every other Monday from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m. in the Aldrich Room
