Good morning.
I would like to invite you to enjoy this post.
I would like to add my comments here.
I agree with what is said about writing groups being beneficial. I think that we must collaborate to a certain degree with others who are like-minded.
I do not however belong to more than one writing group.
I know it is a cliché, but it is my believe that too many cooks spoil the soup. So, I keep my writing critique partners few and far between.
That having been said, I do belong to the exploration in writing group mentioned here.
