Mikaela—-did you find the workshopping we did for your novel the Wednesday before last helpful?
"Exile" Updated Treatment
Hey all here is an updated link to the treatment doc for my "Exile" story. Please feel free to leave comments/questions. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hL0XrBU4D2N0dWwlr0z0_3kRv94Er1V_n2Lp5gDVPMQ/edit?usp=sharing

Hey! I like it! Wondering if you consider the explosion at the conference (and Fable giving Eve the drugs and saying he will contact them later) to be your inciting incident. If everything else that happens in the story can’t connect back in a causal way to that moment, I would rethink placing “Act 2” right after that. My point is that the inciting incident needs to be the thing that happens just before your act 2 begins. Let me know when you can. I’m sure I’ll have more questions later!
Here’s the recording to this week’s meeting!
It was great having Max and Justin and Stu and I together on this. So sorry those of you couldn’t make it, but feel free to jump in next week! I won’t be able to make next week, but let me know if someone can record it. If it turns out only can record it, then I will do so on the 17th. Thanks again, everyone, and Happy Writing!! :)

@Mikaela Raun no worries! Thanks for letting us know!
Hello, everyone! A reminder that there's no meeting tonight, but PLEASE look at this when you can!
Hello! Your friendly neighborhood film and story guy here. We shall resume our Wednesday night meetings on December 3rd! Let me know if anyone has any questions, and feel free to share something before then! Hopefully one of us will be able to respond! ALSO---I thought I would send this article about 'Writing Critique Group Etiquette' I found. I agree with a lot of it (like not critiquing a person's style, etc.), but I would love if everyone could read it and we can vote on making it our group's etiquette. https://docs.google.com/document/d/11GjZp189PWnuOkXjmgCEFXPIb6GtnPIUoqy2TH6Kkqw/edit?usp=sharing Give it a read and we shall discuss it briefly on the 3rd. THANKS! HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Nate

Yes, I think we have a very supportive group, so when she says no outright "suggestions" that really doesn't apply to us.
Hey, everyone! I will conduct a FREE Q&A for your work-in-progress…
This next Wednesday, November 5, 2025 at 6pm. This is a chance for all of us to help you with your work in progress. Bring developmental, structure, characterization, line-by-line, or any other questions you might have!
