The Craft Beer Co. Brixton

Join us at Craft Beer Co. Brixton for our structured Sci-Fi &amp; Fantasy Feedback Session. A supportive, focused space where writers can share their work and receive constructive, thoughtful critique.These sessions are designed not only to help authors refine their writing but also to strengthen our community. Giving feedback is as valuable as receiving it: by learning to critique effectively, we sharpen our own editorial instincts and deepen our understanding of craft.Whether you’re submitting work or attending as a reader, this is a collaborative, growth-focused environment. FOR THOSE SUBMITTING WORKWe allow up to 4 people to submit their work for feedback. In order to submit please RSVP and send your submission to scififantasyauthors@gmail.com no later than the Sunday prior to the session to give organisers time to review submissions and arrange critique groups in advance. Priority for submission slots is given to those who have attended a previous session.To ensure quality and fairness, submission guidelines are as follows:<ul><li>A short introduction (2–3 paragraphs max.) explaining:</li><li>The context and status of the piece (early draft? polished?)</li><li>What kind of feedback you’re looking for</li><li>An excerpt (chapter or short story) of up to 3,000 words</li><li>+10% flexibility allowed</li><li>Strict cut-off beyond that</li></ul> FOR THOSE PROVIDING FEEDBACK<ul><li>Please RSVP and read the “How to Give Feedback” document that will be shared prior to attending.</li><li>Bring a device suitable for reading the submitted piece</li><li>There is no expectation to read anything in advance. All reading takes place during the session itself. We begin with dedicated silent reading time, ensuring that everyone engages with the piece equally and no one feels pressure to prepare outside the session. Just show up ready to read, think, and contribute.</li></ul> SCHEDULEAttendees will be placed into small critique groups of 5–6 people, each with an experienced facilitator to guide discussion and manage time.6:30–6:45pm – Arrival, drinks &amp; group seating6:45–7:30pm – Silent reading &amp; note-taking7:30–8:00pm – Structured feedback delivery8:00–8:30pm – Open roundtable discussion &amp; author questionsEach participant will have up to 5 minutes to share feedback during the structured critique section.
