I'm not overly experienced with this, but the two months I have been meeting with mine have been great. I think it's helping me grow as a writer for no other reason than it's nice ot meet and talk with people who are pursuing the same thing you are. The critiques have been great, but I enjoy the conversation just as much. I don't have anyone who I can talk writing with and this group gives me that. We don't have a formal agenda when we meet. It's just swapping some pages and chatting. We go over each others critiques quickly. We are supposed to meet for an hour but only the first meeting stuck to that. All of the others have gone well over. I can’t recommend enough finding an in-person writers’ group.
