Vicious Circle Atlanta (Writers Critique Group)

Come hang out with us and listen to some awesome literature from fantastic artists every 2nd and 4th MONDAY night at 7:00 p.m. at the downtown Decatur location of Bench Warmers (240 W. Ponce de Leon Avenue, Decatur, GA 30030) across the street from the CVS in (at the corner of Ponce and Commerce).

Please be aware that you are not required to bring anything to be critiqued. We love being around people who love words, so you're always welcome to nerd out with us without having to bring something to read.

The room is open to the outside, so please be mindful if you have allergies. Dressing in layers to make yourself comfortable in case it gets too hot or too cold is also recommended.

**IF** YOU DO DECIDE TO BRING SOMETHING FOR CRITIQUE

• Limit your submission to 10 minutes of reading (4 pages / 2,000 words) or less.
• Each reader usually gets about 10 minutes to read and 10 minutes to hear feedback from the group about their selection.
• If you're nervous about reading aloud, just ask and we'll be more than happy to read your piece out loud for you.
• There are no restrictions on genre or format. A haiku, query letter, screenplay, set of graphic novel panels, and term paper could all be critiqued on the same night.
• If you would like us to give you written feedback, please bring printed copies of your piece and we will read along with you and take notes directly on the copies. Ten copies is usually enough, but when it isn't, people can pair up and share copies as needed.

WHERE WE MEET INSIDE BENCH WARMERS
You can find us right at the front of the restaurant. We're in the room with the large, open windows (though we may shutter them to control the temperature). Just come inside and take an immediate right.

We can't wait to meet you and read your work!
