One of the things that has made the most difference to be during my writing career is having other writers to talk to, commiserate with, celebrate with, and simply hang out with.
That’s why I launched the Writers’ Huddle Forum. It’s a private online community where you can discuss anything and everything to do with writing.
There are separate forums within Writers’ Huddle for fiction, freelancing, blogging, and more.
- You can post anything writing-related in the forums. You’re welcome to ask questions, share work-in-progress, tell us what you’re struggling with … anything you like.
- Every week, I post a mini-challenge for you to try (this is completely optional and is designed to take 15 minutes or less).
- Each Monday, I also post a “how’s your writing going?” topic where you can share how the previous week went for you, and what your plans are for the upcoming week. Lots of people find this a helpful way to set weekly goals.
- Every month, we have a Q&A topic, where you can post any questions that you want me to answer. (I’ll normally pop into regular forum topics too, but posting in the Q&A means I’ll be sure to see your question.)
To make sure you don’t miss out on what’s happening in Writers’ Huddle, even on busy weeks, I send out an email each Monday with a round-up of key forum topics.

Questions About Writers’ Huddle
One question I forgot to answer is about the name of Writers’ Huddle. Several people remembered the old Writers’ Huddle than I ran from 2012 - 2018, which offered monthly seminars and other teaching resources.
I loved running Writers’ Huddle in that way, but it took a lot of time and work. It was a lot of content for members (especially new members who joined after several years of seminars!) to keep up with … and when I ran surveys of members, I found that some of the most valued aspects were the community ones.
So the Writers’ Huddle Forum is a new version that uses similar community elements, but that doesn’t have the teaching side of things. This is the reason it’s a lot cheaper at just $7.99/month.
Past members: If you belonged to the old Writers’ Huddle, you’re very welcome to join the new one too! Also, if you’re not already part of the (free) alumni Facebook group for the old Huddle, do drop me an email if you want to join it.
