2022 Writers Workshop Dates

Posted on January 3, 2022

2022 has arrived and the Critiquing Path shall continue. I have looked at the calendar and have the schedule for all of our meetings this year.

For those of you who are new, the Critiquing Path is a place where you can share your works in progress and get feedback on them from other Journey writers. I will be sending out our first official email of the year this week with more information.

We meet twice a month on alternating Wednesdays.

Here are the dates:

January 12, and 26
February 9, and 23
March 9, and 23
April 13, and 27
May 11, and 25
June 8, and 22
July 13, and 27
August 10, and 24
September 14, and 28
October 12, and 26

We do not meet in November because it is NaNoWriMo time and we also take December off for the holidays.

Last year we had a very slow summer and fall so if that happens again the later dates may change, but we will worry about that when we get there.

Thank you for your time,

Daniel McCullough

Because of the Novel Coronavirus/ COVID-19 pandemic, our meetings will be held virtually for the foreseeable future. Before each meeting, we’ll post a new link for that night’s Zoom meeting. You’ll need to check your Journey Writers Workshop email for the link.

We’ve worked out the meeting times for 2019! Watch this space for the listing.

June 13 meeting canceled

by Catherine Brennan

Due to projected low attendance, we won’t be meeting on June 13, 2018. Our next meeting will be June 27 in Glen Ellyn.

Update: Meeting Location Changes

Posted on June 5, 2018
by Catherine Brennan

For the remainder of 2018, we’ll be meeting at the Glen Ellyn Public Library.

In the past, we’d tried to alternate between Glen Ellyn and Woodridge, but it’s proved difficult to secure a room in Woodridge.

Venue Change

Posted on March 3, 2018
by Catherine Brennan

We weren’t able to get the meeting room at the Woodridge library on March 14 or April 11, so the meetings previously planned for Woodridge will be at the Glen Ellyn library.

Welcome to 2018!

We’ll continue helping each other with our works-in-progress for most of 2018, with meetings alternating between the Woodridge and Glen Ellyn Public libraries. Our starting date is February 28 in Glen Ellyn. The full schedule appears on the schedule page.

Four to Go

We’re still going strong as we near the end of our 2017 Journey Critique Workshop season. As of this post, remaining sessions are:
September 13 in Woodridge
September 27 in Glen Ellyn
October 11 in Woodridge
October 25 in Glen Ellyn

We’re usually off from November through January as many of our members concentrate on National Novel Writing Month, followed by winter holidays. It’s not too late for writers intent on improving their skills to join us, though! If not, keep us in mind for 2018. Our first meeting of the new year will be on February 28, 2018.

Our first meeting of the new year will be on February 28, 2018, at the Glen Ellyn Public Library.
