writers group

Critique session collective

A writers group is a gathering of people who meet regularly to share their work, give feedback, and support each other's writing.

Members typically read drafts aloud or distribute them beforehand, then offer critique: I joined a writers group to get honest feedback on my novel.

Some focus on specific genres; others welcome any form.

Also written as writers' group or writer's group.
