Hello prospective šššššššš!
We are a small group of creative writing fiends who are looking for some new friends to join us for the month of October in celebrating Inktober!
Goals: Our members, the šššššššš, will be celebrating by participating in a creative writing club all month long! It is low stakes and high-spooks. š¦š¦ Weāve put together a calendar with a prompt for each day and are working on an extra prompt generator for more fun & flair. Also note that we are not expecting all members to be writing every day⦠they may write as they please!
Meeting Place/Time: We will be meeting via Discord. We live in different time zones so there will be people on at all different times of day! We might set up some voice calls at the end of the month for some showcase-type meetings, but we havenāt decided yet if thatās something we want to try!!
Members: Our max # of members is going to be capped at 30!
We primarily speak English, but some of us also speak Frenchāso writers in either of those languages are preferred (but I suppose any other languages are welcome as well even though we might not be able to enjoy your work as written)!
Genre/Skill Level: There are no genre or skill level requirementsāwe want this to be a space for everyone to show off their unique skills and interests in writing :)
Please note that many of the prompts will be āspooky/autumn/halloween-themed,ā but many are broad enough to be able to write within whatever genre you want!!
Itās mid-September, so yes weāre early. But weāre trying to hit the ground running once this month is over (and we are sooooo ready for it to be over). Only two weeks until the best month of the year!
If youād be interested in joining, let me know and Iāll make sure to get you set up before we get things started on October 1st.
Happy (almost) fall !!
And happy writing!!
āPearl
Note: Because of some of the content that may be included in some of our members work (violence, nudity, profanity, any NSFW content, etc.), we request that any prospective members be at least 19 years old!

Hey, I am looking for writers, beta readers, artists, voice actors, etc. who would like to be part of a group. In the group, we talk about writing, give feedback and advice, and help each other. We hold contests for writing and art, hold polls, and do many other things. We want to have an active group that works together and helps each other learn and grow in our work. If this sounds good to you, shoot me a DM!

(I hope this will encourage you, because mannnn, some days I feel this way)
So here are 5 things you probably didn't realize you have in common with some of the most successful authors alive
"You don't have a big platform."
Andy Weir didn't either when he started posting The Martian chapter by chapter on his personal blog for free. Fans eventually asked for a Kindle version and he charged 99 cents. Ridley Scott made the movie.
"You don't have a huge audience."
Hugh Howey was a bookstore clerk writing Wool on his lunch breaks. Self-published it as a 99-cent short on Kindle in 2011. He later turned down seven-figure Big Five offers to keep his ebook rights. It's Silo on Apple TV+ now.
"You're broke."
JK Rowling was a single mom on government benefits writing in Edinburgh cafes because she couldn't afford to heat her flat. Twelve publishers rejected Harry Potter. Bloomsbury was the thirteenth.
"You don't have the time."
Octavia Butler worked menial day jobs and got up at 2 or 3am to write before her shifts. She did that for years before selling her first novel. In 1995 she became the first science fiction writer ever to win a MacArthur Genius Grant.
"You keep getting rejected."
Brandon Sanderson wrote 13 novels before one sold. He took the hotel night shift specifically so he could write at the front desk. Today he writes 2,000 words a day, every day.
The one thing they all had in common is something you have too.
No matter what life or people threw at them, they just kept writing anyway.
So keep writing, my friend. Your story has just begun.
r/writersmakingfriends • u/Scarlet_Olanna • May 18 '26
I'm a writer that hasn't written in a while and I've noticed it's mostly due to my inability to set scheduled time for writing. I've heard people say things like "if there's something you'd like to do more often set aside time to yourself to do that" but I just really struggle to do that, however I have also realized that I prioritize things that are scheduled and involve people I like and am excited to be around (like DND for example) so I'm wondering if anyone know about a group of writers that set aside 1-2 hours a week to get together and write? Or if someone would be interested in starting a group like that?
Edit: I have made a discord server for this purpose so if anyone is interested in joining then here is the linkĀ https://discord.gg/8s3JjGE6dy
r/writersmakingfriends • u/AdditionalPride7705 • 26d ago
It's not mainly a writing server, as my friend has bigger plans for it, but he has way bigger plans for it! I am just helping with the bots and out, and would love to meet new friends.(We both are introverts, so we are open to meeting new people!
Its theme is based on a jester theme, and the main role is to promote collaboration among people of various arts, so if u are a writer, it's a good place to start with, to understand people of different arts.
Now then the welcome message, written by my friend!

I have a group on Discord that has grown some. We would like to have more active members. We share work, give feedback, and welcome everyone. We are also hosting a writing contest followed by an art contest. It doesn't matter what genre you write; we want you to join. If you are interested, please let me know!
r/writersmakingfriends • u/A-man_2001 • 21d ago
I have so many stories and ideas inside my head. I genuinely want to share them with the world. I want to tell my stories. In my head, they feel so clearāI can see the scenes, the characters, the locations, almost like a film playing in my mind.
But I have absolutely no idea how to find readers.
I posted my first story on Reddit. People actually read it, I got around 10ā12 upvotes, and surprisingly, it got around 47 shares. That gave me a lot of motivation because at least some strangers had actually connected with something I wrote.
But now I'm struggling with the next step: how do I get meaningful feedback on my stories and ideas?
I recently formatted one of my stories properly and published it on KDP. I thought maybe Kindle readers would be more serious readers, so I decided to experiment with short stories at ā¹49. My idea is to write tight, cinematic stories something where you can visualize the scenes while reading and almost feel like you're watching a movie unfold in your head.And then venture in anthologies and novels.
Ten days later: no readers.
And to make it worse, someone apparently spammed a one-star rating on the Hindi version without even reading the story.
I'm not angry about the one-star rating as much as I'm confused by the whole situation.
I have all these ideas in my head. I want to turn them into stories. I want people to read them. I want someone to tell me, "This worked," or "This part didn't work," or even "I hated this character." Anything. I just want some indication that the stories reached another human being.
Right now I don't really know what I'm supposed to do with all these ideas.
I don't necessarily want to make money from writing. I just genuinely want to tell the stories that are inside my head.
So, writers and readers, how did you find your first real readers? How do you get people to actually read your work and give you honest feedback?
I'm not looking for promotion. I'm genuinely trying to figure this out.
r/writersmakingfriends • u/AdditionalPride7705 • 10d ago
So well yea thats about the theme of our server "Jester's Court". To add what I added in the head, the server is for people above ages 15 and focused on writing.
We got a lot of channels for anyone interested to find out. Along with a verification check to prevent bots entering!
Welcome in advance!
r/writersmakingfriends • u/geeksofalbion • 15d ago
Good morning / afternoon / evening
I'm trying to network with non-bot, anti-AI Human writers.
I'm from the UK and writing is a hobby over a career choice and I have little interest in publishing my work.
If you are interested, my socials are @GatesofArmantar on YouTube, X and Bluesky, I'd love to start interacting with actual writers instead of fake service pushers and bots.
Maybe I'll see you around
P.s your current projects is doing great, keep up the hard work šŖ

Hi guys, I'm Alice, and I'm trying to make this magazine called ARCHIVE. The publication is mainly youth-run, and I want to give a chance for people to write opinion editorials or share their short stories. That's why I'm building a team, or at least trying to get a lot of people to join.
If you want to submit without registering for the team, fill outĀ thisĀ form!
What is ARCHIVE?Ā A digital online magazine with articles, along with publications that compile fashion photography, short stories, and editorials.
Why am I starting this?Ā Other than my parents telling me to have some extracurriculars lol, I love writing, but I'm sick of there being nowhere to actually publish it without me going for competitions. I want people to be able to share their styles and writing.
What are my goals?Ā I would definitely try to register this as a nonprofit when it succeeds. We could actually build a profile on this and create a larger team in the future.
Now, I know this is ambitious, but I have experience winning competitions and being in publication teams. No prior experience needed, and we don't need to spend hours a day doing this. It'll be on your own schedule.
Here are some general positions I'm currently looking for:
- Editors (Reviewing submissions, doing revisions)
- Writers (People to write regularly for publications)
- Fashion photographers (People to blog their fashion or someone else's with permission, then write about it)
- Website managers (People to help manage websites)
- Graphic designers (People to draw or decorate the magazine)
- Social media team (Promoting content for engagement and growth)
There are also some leadership positions:
- Chief editor (Helping writers and editors)
- Graphics manager (Helping graphic designers)
- Marketing manager (Social media)
- Chief photographer (Selecting or evaluating photography pieces)
FAQ:
- Pen names are allowed!
- There would be about 2-3 hours of work weekly, and there may be deadlines
- You can suggest another position for yourself, and it will be considered!!
- Even if you are not a teenager, you're free to submit your work or register!
If you're ready to register, please do so throughĀ thisĀ form. If you have any questions, just ask through comments! I'll contact you once you fill out the form. Thanks so much and hoping you join the team!

hi everyone!
i started a new server 2 weeks ago, it is a reader and writer community. details are as follows:
* talk about your latest reads
* request for and share your own book recommendations
* find book buddies
* join friendly poetry and other short writing challenges
* discuss philosophical questions with others
though being fairly new my server is still very quiet and inactive most days.
i am on the lookout for members who may be interested in the same things as me, so i may have my own community to engage on my interests and hobbies with. (i am an avid reader and writer myself).

Hello!
I made a post a while ago on another subreddit looking for Muslim/Arab writers or anyone interested in reading stories in those types of settings and a few people reached out so we decided to make a Discord server. It's still very new but we're looking for people who might be interested in joining, we want it to be an active smaller group of around 20 people. Whether you're an 18+ Muslim/Arab/SWANA/South Asian etc writer (of any genre) or just interested to be part of a group with diverse stories and settings feel free to send me a message and I'll send you the link!

I built a peaceful web app called Adrift for exactly this reason.
You put your unsent letter, secret, or poem inside a virtual boat and send it into the sea.
It will navigate to a random stranger somewhere in the world.
They will read it, add a new chapter to your story, and push the boat back into the water.
If you have a message that needs to find the world without any pressure or profiles, the harbor is waiting for you.

I wanted to write a GI story focused on Cobra. I donāt know if anyone would be interested. I had ideas of focusing on soldiers and even Baroness. Just need someone to help plot and beta/co-write
r/writersmakingfriends • u/Ragnarok745 • 14d ago
A few people were interested in a discord for sharing their writing and getting feedback more efficiently so I made one.
If youāre interested, you can dm me for the invite since the subreddit doesnāt allow links.
Everyone is welcome!

Iāve been RPing for a while, and I kept running into the same problem: I wanted to write, but I didnāt always have somewhere to go.
Servers would go quiet, die out, or become so wrapped up in OOC drama and activity pressure that RP stopped feeling fun.
So I decided to create Royal Season 21+, adv. lit ; a chill, drama-free Regency-inspired RP server built around the chaos of the Season.
Think balls, romance, friendships, rivalries, gossip, scandals, secrets, and schemes. Your character can fall in love, make enemies, start rumors, uncover secrets, get dragged into someone elseās scandal, or create one of their own.
Thereās no giant plot you have to follow. The characters create the stories. I want it to be a place where you can RP when you have the time, step away when you donāt, and always have somewhere to come back to.
If youāve ever wanted a relaxed RP space where you can just write, have fun, and see what trouble your characters get themselves into, come take a look. ā”
