1) We give each other support.
2) We encourage each other.
3) We give each other honest feedback (without throwing tomatoes.)
4) We learn from each other.
5) We kick each other in the pants, when necessary.
6) We laugh, A LOT.
And, look! Here is an article about my very own group!

Is your spouse afraid to come near you because you’ll ask, “Which sounds better?” and then repeat three seemingly identical sentences with only the slightest changes of punctuation? Then join a writers’ group. Your family will love you for it!

Great article! You know I haven't met with my group for quite awhile and I was just thinking I should try and get us together this week, even if it is a busy week. Thanks for the kick in the pants, I'm going to make some calls!

Great, Gail! I should have mentioned another good thing about writing groups-- having a deadline!!
