Writer's Critique was an idea I came up with about a year ago. I was just getting back into writing after a 15 year absence.

As a Software Analyst by trade, my specialty has been around the development of high quality software for the organizations I work with.

About a month after join a few writing forums, I noticed a gap that needed filling. All writers at some point need critiques by their peers. Unfortunately, there is no good way of doing this without risk of theft.

Putting on my Software Analyst hat, I decided to do something about it. Writer's Critique is my offering to the writing community. Instead of email based critiques or public forums, this site has been designed to let writers create their own private critiquing groups.

As a member, you can create or join a critique group that interests you. The administrator (or founder) of each critique group determines who and how many people are allowed in. This gives you the ability to have your work privately critiqued by a predefined list of members. The risks to you are much less than a public forum.

However, I understand that sometimes you need a public critique. So, a public critique forum is also available. Anyone can read your posts in this section and registered members can reply with a critique.

I hope you enjoy this site and it is of value to you.

Thanks
