At Jersey City Writers’ Nov. 10 roundtable, the group reads submitted writing during the meeting, then gives the writer constructive feedback. Attendees can encounter the pieces in the room rather than preparing by reading them in advance.
Workshop pieces are provided to attendees in hard copy and through a shared link. The session listing says the group will read them during the meeting, so advance reading is not required.
After the read-aloud, participants offer constructive feedback to the writer. That format makes this a group critique session, rather than a discussion in which attendees arrive having already read a text.

To have work scheduled for a Tuesday workshop, a writer must first attend at least one Tuesday workshop. The group describes these workshop pieces as unpublished work by Jersey City Writers members and says they must be submitted in advance.
The Nov. 10 listing does not give a submission deadline, length or formatting requirements, or explain how to arrange a submission. If you hope to have work considered, contact organizer Kevin before preparing it; the listing provides [email protected] for questions.

The roundtable sits among three different Tuesday formats. On the first Tuesday, the Short Story Salon discusses a published short work of fiction; on the third, Power Prompts uses constrained writing. Workshops on the second and fourth Tuesdays focus on constructive criticism of unpublished members’ work submitted in advance.
That rotation helps set expectations for the Nov. 10 session: it is for shared feedback on submitted writing, not the salon’s discussion of published fiction or a prompt-based writing exercise.

The Tuesday rotation distinguishes this roundtable from the Short Story Salon and Power Prompts: the workshop format centers on unpublished member work submitted in advance.
The event page also describes Tuesday meetings every two weeks through Dec. 25, 2026, but does not list the dates of later editions.
The listing sets a 7:15 p.m. cutoff, 30 minutes after the session begins. Arrive before then.
The event is listed at 157B, 157 First St, Jersey City, NJ.
A separate Jersey City Writers listing for an event at 157B says the building requires a keycard and that the organizer waits downstairs. The Nov. 10 listing does not confirm that this arrangement applies to the roundtable, so check with Kevin before relying on someone to meet you.
