Introducing SCBWI Critique Groups


Introducing SCBWI Critique Groups

You've asked, and SCBWI has heard! Introducing the SCBWI Critique Groups! SCBWI is proud to announce that the beta version of their exclusive Critique Group program has officially launched!

One of the best ways to grow as a storyteller is by receiving feedback from your peers. Whether you’re an author, illustrator, or translator, our critique group builder is designed to connect you with the perfect partners who are working on similar projects. 

As a member of SCBWI, you will have the opportunity to browse listings from fellow members, or create a group of your own, all on your SCBWI ‘Member Home.

Check out this video below by the one and only, Jolie Stekly, for more information on the groups!


Find your people, connect, create, and critique! Your craft will thank you!

This premium member benefit allows SCBWI creators to design the peer groups of their dreams and connect with new critique partners. Start your critique journey now through your MEMBER HOME.

Why Join a Critique Group?

Every creator reaches a point where an outside perspective becomes essential. A critique group gives you a trusted space to share your work and hear how it lands with others: what resonates with readers, what confuses them, and where your vision has room to grow. The conversations you have there won't just improve a manuscript or a spread; they can help sharpen how you think about storytelling itself. This is a member benefit that helps anyone at any stage of their development.
