FEBRUARY MANUSCRIPT CRITIQUE NIGHT

Feb 20, 2025

Online event

**What to Expect:** Interested in joining a meeting? Great! First, please register for your chosen month on our Open Ohio North Events page. The day before (or on the day of) the manuscript critique meeting, we will email you a Zoom link for the session. We typically limit attendance to 15 participants due to time constraints, but the average number of attendees is between 5 and 10. At the beginning of the meeting, we will determine how many members would like to share their manuscripts. This helps us allocate time appropriately for each person. If you plan to share a story, please have your document open on your computer and be ready to “share your screen” through Zoom. Once you select your document, everyone on Zoom will be able to see your screen and read along with you. Alternatively, if you prefer, someone else can read your manuscript for you. If you've had difficulties sharing your screen in the past, you can always email your story to one of our regional team members, and they will share your manuscript on the screen. After you’ve read your story, the members will have the opportunity to provide positive and constructive feedback. We’ll then move on to the next participant. **Please Note:** You do NOT have to share anything to attend a meeting, nor do you need to offer feedback if you don't have any. Feel free to join just to observe! The only guidelines are to be kind to everyone, remain open to suggestions, and most importantly, have fun!
