A critique group, Pittsburgh & wherever Zoom reaches

Rust and Ink

We're a small group of writers who trade honest, kind feedback on fiction, nonfiction, screenplays, and the occasional poem — every other Sunday, over Zoom.

Currently

We meet every other Sunday. New writers are welcome any time — see how to join.

What we do

Twice a month we read each other's pages and talk through what's working and what isn't — a slightly less formal cousin of the Milford Workshop process. We keep it small, honest, and low-drama.

Curious what that looks like in practice, or how submissions work? The Join page walks through it.

From the group

Members' short fiction, flash pieces, and poems live in the Reading Room. New here, or just visiting? Start there.
