Meetings will be held every Saturday starting
at 2:00 p.m. The general theme of a meeting is to work on revising
members writing, and just plain reading it for fun of course, to play a few
games that help refine writing techniques, and to just share camaraderie with
guild members.

Suggestions/General Guidelines for Editing People's Work at
the Meetings
-
It's nice to have someone
recognize when the author has done something well, but that alone won't help
them improve their writing, which is why they came to you in the first place.
-
Use constructive comments.
Offer suggestions for improvement.
-
Never attack the author.
-
Try not to attack the writing
either. It isn't your enemy, there is no need to needlessly degrade it.
-
Remember how long the author has
worked on this writing.
-
It helps to thank them for putting
their necks out and letting you read their stuff.
-
NO RED PENS! THEY ARE EVIL!
