YA and Adult Speculative Fiction with Stuti Telidevara
April 23rd, 2025 - May 22nd, 2025
with Stuti Telidevara
Non-members may register on April 1st at 08:00 (EDT).
You'll submit your pages at the group start, then spend the next weeks critiquing peer stories. Stuti will submit her notes near the critique deadline. After critiques are complete, we host a 2-hour group debrief, in which each writer gets 15 minutes of individual time with Stuti to dig into feedback, brainstorm next steps, and discuss any writing questions.
Our goal with these events is to help writers become stronger storytellers. That said, each opening pages event we offer also comes with a submission opportunity.
