The Weekend Writer: Are Writers' Groups Always A Good Thing?

Tomorrow night is my writers' group meeting. I just finished reading The 4 Hidden Dangers of Writing Groups by Jennie Nash at Jane Friedman. I've got to hustle to put some of what I've read into practice by then. This thing could make a whole new Writers' Group Gail.

I've written about writers' groups before. The 4 Hidden Dangers thing looks at them from a different angle. Yes, it covers aspects that could be problems, but it provides suggestions on how to deal with them. In fact, it's sort of like a personal mini-workshop on writers' groups.
