Description:

Lots of people here are shy about letting others see their writing. The only way to get over that is to JUST DO IT! I hope this little exercise will help many of you break that wall.

So your assignment is to write something short. Anything. Poetry, fiction, non-fiction, scene from a screenplay--whatever. It doesn't have to be good. The purpose is to just get it out there. You'll have one partner and you will email it, so you can't make the cost of postage an excuse.

Partners, besides writing and sending your own piece, your only other duty is to rate the sender to let them know you've received theirs. DON'T critique or offer advice. In fact you don't even have to read it. lol. But of course you probably will.

I'm not sure I've explained this clearly (it's 4:30 am after a restless night), so leave a comment asking for clarification if you need it.

would it be alright to request critique as something extra?

AndreaJ 09/29/2010 #

I hesitate to allow your request, Green Griffin, because I think some of our newer writers feel intimidated about offering critiques as well as submitting. Maybe you could go on the Write Now forum and ask for a critiquer? I'm sure there are people willing to do it, but I don't think I'll include it in this swap.
