See all- The Writer's Voice Live Readings & Critiques (FREE) | WordCampLink visible for attendees
Enter the live meeting room here: https://discord.gg/52NnguHfJy
Each week, writers around the world gather on WordCamp to read and critique our work out loud. Join us to experience your words from an new perspective and get real-world feedback on your novel excerpts, short stories, non-fiction or poetry.
Hearing your words read out loud also helps you identify what's working and what isn't working. Your ear will catch awkward or unnecessary phrases. What sounds eloquent in our heads might seem clunky when spoken out loud. It also helps you find the music in your words as you develop your voice. Live readings are useful to get a feel for the flow of your prose. Great authors select words not just for their meaning, but for emotional impact, rhythm, and sound
