GUIDELINES FOR EDIT DEMON CRITIQUE GROUP

(DRAFT)

• Members must be committed to improvement in the art and craft of writing.
• Not every member may feel ready to submit their own work for critiquing (or have their manuscript completed), but wish to see how it's done.  This is okay.  Non-submitting members shadowing the group are expected to otherwise abide by the Edit Demon Critique Guidelines.
• Members are expected to give and receive honest, constructive feedback in a respectful
  and supportive manner.
• Members make a commitment to each other to either check in online and/or attend whether or not they are being reviewed.
• EditDemon recognizes group differences. Variables include number of members, continuity of group membership, frequency of meetings, type of work being critiqued, and experience level of members. Within the broad guidelines provided by the EditDemon, members will determine the protocols for submitting and reviewing work that are most beneficial to their members.
• Some EditDemon members may be under the age of 18.  If a chapter is up for review that has inappropriate subject matter for tender ears, the submitting author will flag the work and omit sending it to our younger group members.
