I have an acquaintance who is trying to write a memoir

and wants to connect to a writing group of some kind to help her out.

She'd be good with one in either Albuquerque or Santa Fe. Does anyone here know of any such group?

She might try other social media. Also there are writers' organizations that sometimes sponsor or list critique groups. With the right group & the right attitude her writing will improve dramatically.

They are (as my high school math teacher would have said) "Obvious to the most casual observer. So of course I didn't think of them.
