It is time for the BVWG Fall Critique Workshop. If you want a chance to have your work critiqued, please read and adhere to these rules:
- NOTE** Dues-paying members will have the first opportunity to submit their work. We have four slots available. If open slots remain, we will take non-dues-paying members.
- FORMAT: Double-spaced. Times New Roman font. 1-inch margins with page numbers. This simple, straightforward formatting is standard for many journals.
- WORD COUNT: 3500-word limit.
- CONTENT: We're open to all genres and literary works. We will not take work that contains gratuitous sex or violence.
- Submit your work to [email protected]. Please send your work as an attached PDF or Word file. The deadline for submissions is SUNDAY, OCTOBER 4th, 2026!
- A Critique Workshop focuses on the strengths of the submissions as well as areas that could be made stronger with suggested changes. The goal is for meeting attendees to read the submissions in advance, make suggestions for the writer, and come prepared to discuss ways to help the writer make the work better.
