There we went over actual scripts, talked through the stories and characters, and generally sought to make the work better through positive feedback. There is a danger in getting involved with a Group. It's not what you might think it is, not what most people expect, but very real. The single best reason to join a Writer's Group is the feedback you'll get on your work. The socializing aspect quickly gains ground as friendships are made, we get caught up in each other's lives, and a sense of community builds over time.
Groups are for feedback and support, yet the support can be addictive.
Support is great, it can get you past a tough rejection, point you toward writing material that you are meant to write and make you feel as though you are not alone in the endless quest for the perfect query letter. But the Group will not, can not, buy your work or fulfill your goals. It just can't, case closed. It's a comfortable trap, a cushy prison. Don't let it happen.
