DC WRITERS' SALON

Feedback Fridays

Peer feedback, when integrated into the practice of writing, can be validating, course correcting, and motivating. At the Salon, we have two ways to get feedback. One is by participating in Finishers' Group, in which we exchange feedback once or twice a quarter. The other is joining a Feedback Friday, which we try to offer once a quarter.

Here's how Feedback Fridays work: ​
  • Bring up to 2,500 words to share either in PDF form or three printed copies
  • At 7pm, we'll put folks into groups of about 4, ideally based on genre
  • For the first hour together, folks will read what their group members have shared
  • At 8pm, groups will break off and each member of the group will get 12 minutes to hear feedback

The next date is Friday, November 4th from 7 - 9pm. All members welcome, no need to sign up, just show up with your words. We'll share some helpful feedback guidelines and adjust group size and timing as needed. 
Mark your calendar for November 4th
The next quarter's Feedback Friday will be in early February.
