About Deadly Prose - Deadly Prose, Fiction to Die For—Book Reviews, Novel Trends, Commercial Fiction, Columns, Blogs, Author & Reader Forums

Deadly Prose Critique Group^TM began years ago as a private critique group focused on full novel critiques in a private subscribed environment. Unique credit-swapping kept it professional, and many members went on to successful publication. Most members are published or have agents. All members have completed novels and submitted a writing sample and a critique sample to join.

Or click on the Yahoo Icon to apply formally. Unless you are royalty-published you will be asked to submit a chapter of your current work. All applicants may be asked to provide a sample critique to our template. This is only for the closed, secure critique group, and only designed for full-novel critiquing. If you are still drafting chapters, consider the private chatper critique forums instead.

Above all — have a good time!
