Raw Pages is a group for sharing your newest and rawest work wanting to be nurtured by a warm room of other writers and not yet ready for the critique and editing process. Like “shooting raw” in photography, this process is meant to yield more flexibility to the editing process by allowing the writer to bask in the work itself and not the critical thinking around it.
This group has evolved into a circle where writers have 5 minutes each to share a work of CNF or fiction that is new, unedited, and not yet ready for critical feedback. This an opportunity to share work with others and swap ideas about writing that is still in the planning stages and needing encouragement. So far there is a cast of writers who have come to know each other and the writing their peers are currently working on. We always welcome new folks!
Bring a piece of writing that is 5 minutes read out loud, feel free to bring some copies if you want others to read along while you read out loud. Please bring pen and paper for notes as well as for a writing prompt given by Daniel at the end. We ask writers to come prepared to give positive and nurturing feedback to each other. We also ask for playfulness and the ability to find joy in the writing process as well as take things seriously!
Hosted by writer Daniel Menendez
