Community is one of the most underrated keys to success for authors.

Too many people have bought into the idea that writing is a solitary vocation. That it's something that you do alone in a secluded cabin in the woods or alone hunched over your computer in the wee hours of the night. While those images may seem romantic, the truth is that if you want to become a career author, the best way to succeed is to be in community with those who have already done it or are working toward the same goals! In Wordmakers, you will find a supportive space for authors to get together, talk about writing, help each other find solutions, and grow – as authors and creative business owners.

  • SUPPORT

    Writing can sometimes feel like a lonely journey, but not anymore! When you become a part of the Wordmakers community, you gain access to a vibrant and supportive network of fellow genre fiction authors who are just as passionate about storytelling as you are. Connect with like-minded individuals, share your triumphs and challenges, and find inspiration in the success stories of others. It's like having a cheerleading squad dedicated to fueling your creativity!

  • ACCOUNTABILITY

    Need a little nudge to get those creative juices flowing? Wordmakers has got you covered! As a member, you'll have access to exclusive sprints are designed to get you writing.

This has really been a wonderful, supportive community full of amazing, talented hustlers. I can honestly say that I would not have produced the work that I have without this group.
