Writer’s groups

Writer’s groups are great resources since you meet like minded people. Here you can discuss ideas on content, styles and get lots of helpful tips. You may even find that people are willing to offer a critique of your work. You can join a group in you local community or online. Either works quite well.

With so many groups online you need to determine what you would like from the group, your writing niche (science fiction, crime, romance etc) and of course if the group objectives are aligned with yours. I found a great article The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly, or How to Choose a Writers’ Group by Holly Lisle that gives you rules to use when choosing an online group.  

So choose wisely since your group will be important in mentoring you to a successful writing career.
