Lpspider, thank you! And also thank you ariella ... this is the sort of thing I was looking for on www.writing.com but they failed to provide it properly. I wish to be counted into any of the groups that will form (because I guarantee there'll be a few straight away).
The whole forum should work on those principles. I don't see the need in the group because of that. People should return favours anyway, or critique out of good will.
A resounding yes to this idea - I feel terrible if I see a zero reply thread, at the same time it's very tough to keep pace and give a detailed crit. for all of them, especially as my interest is in the novel section.
Well shouldn't be too much longer now before the crit groups will be started up. There will be som strict rules put in place and I do hope no one sees them as too harsd, if so please inform me straight away. Thankyou Ariella
