New England SCBWI Critique Groups

NESCBWI Critique Groups are held, usually on a monthly basis, in communities throughout all the New England states. Each group is unique, shaped by the talents of the Critique Group Leader and the participants.


On this site you will see a list of the currently open critique groups in each state. If you do not see a group open in your area, contact Stacy Mozer at necritiquegroups@gmail.com. Please include your name, city, state, and what you write (PB, MG, YA) or if you illustrate. You can also see a q&a with Stacy Mozer about critique groups on Anna Boll's Blog.



Rhode Island



RI - Providence
New critique group starting in the Providence, RI area.  Actively looking for like-minded members who take their work seriously but not themselves.  Children's publishing is not your hobby, but your calling.  Others describe you as "awesome" or "really awesome" or maybe "the awesomest."  Both writers and illustrators welcome, picture books through YA (we're hoping to have a mix).  We'll meet bi-monthly, location TBD.  Please send a brief bio and goals for a critique group to Megan and Jorge at mnewco1977@yahoo.com


RI - Coastal Children's Writers (Rhode Island group) seeks a new member. Our group is close-knit, and we write all genres (PB, MB, YA, Nonfiction and Poetry). We meet every month on a Sunday at member homes. The new member will have his/her work critiqued and will be responsible for critiquing other members' work every month. The member must be a serious writer who is interested in the craft as well as in the publishing aspects. If you are interested, please contact Maggie at maggieh@cox.net
