Tips for Effectively Critiquing Manuscripts

Done right, manuscript critiques are an important part of any successful writing group and can lead to publication for many of the group's members. But there are definitely "tricks of the trade" when it comes to critiquing manucripts within a group setting.

Suzanne Lieurance is the author of 23 published books, a freelance writer, Internet radio talk show host, and the Working Writer's Coach. As an instructor for the Institute of Children's Literature from 2000 to 2008, she critiqued hundreds, if not thousands, of manuscripts. Throughout her career as a writer and writing coach, she has created and led many writers' critique groups.

Join Suzanne Lieurance on April 6 at Johnson County Central Resource Library, 9875 West 87th Street, Overland Park, KS for this informal session when Lieurance will share many "tricks of the trade" for effectively critiquing manuscripts. The session will be in the Carmack Community Room from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm.
