Play Nice, But Not Too Nice:
How to Give and Receive Powerful Critiques
by Ryan Urie
Giving and receiving useful feedback is at the heart of how we improve as writers. Yet, we rarely receive any guidance on how to do this well and so fail to make the most of our critique sessions. This interactive workshop provides detailed guidance, examples, and practice exercises to teach you how to make the most of the critiques you give and receive in order to transform your critique group from a social club for writers into a powerful source of continuous writing improvement.
*IWL hosts online member-only events. Join us today to attend all 2021 monthly member events.
Meet Our January Workshop Speaker
Ryan is the founder of the Palouse chapter of the IWL and has been writing poetry and other short works since he was six years old. He has worked many years as a technical editor and writing instructor. When he’s not homeschooling his kids or doom-scrolling through the latest headlines, he likes to write personal essays and poetry, play guitar, and hike.
