Useful pointers:
1) Writers bring along a DRAFT of their work – the assumption is that they are looking to improve it. So, your job is to offer constructive responses and suggestions to help them achieve this. Feedback is never a comment on their talent as writers. It is an opinion on the draft pages you have in front of you.
I’m a newbie novelist. I’ve been writing my first book for about nine months and I’ve joined a writers group, but it still feels like this is a weird thing to be doing. I wouldn’t mention it at polite dinner parties, where people would be patronising or appalled. Winchester Writers’ Festival changed all that.
