Join us on August 15th from noon until 3 PM for a speed-dating style event designed to help put you and your work in front of as many potential critique partners (beta readers, alpha readers, etc) as possible within a three-hour time frame. Finding a good critique partner is a bit like dating, and we hope this event will help you find at least one match that is productive for the both of you. This event is free and open to the public (just like all our events). This is NOT an actual dating event; we just really like the format. Watch for more info in the coming days!

Finish Your Novel this summer with HOT F.Y.N SUMMER!

Listen, we know that you have a draft (or multiple drafts) of your novel. Or maybe you have multiple novels. Either way, you need to finish that.

Will there be prompts? No, you know what your novel needs.

Will there be extra events? No, we're finishing OUR novels! But you can come find us at our regular weekly events and commiserate about finishing novels.

Will there be marathons? Nope, just three months to finish your novel at your own pace.

Find out how to join in for weekly events at kanmowrico.com
