Mission of CP Matchmaker
This site is to match writers with Critique Partners.
This site came about because I've talked with so many beginning and intermediate writers who don't have another writer they trust or have confidence in to send their work to be critiqued.
My hope is this will bring together writers who form bonds and help each other with their writing. If it hadn't been for the guidance and generosity of a judge in a contest who took me on as a critique partner, I would still be floundering with my writing.
Family and friends are good readers to give you encouragement, but when you have another career focused writer critique your work, it's when your writing blossoms.
