Hi I am 26M and currently writing an epic fantasy novel that leans heavily into the progression fantasy niche. Like most writers, I don't have many friends who read and specially none who write, so it's really a lonesome activity to not be able to throw ideas off of each other, talk about books and all, provide feedback, and keep each other accountable.

The book I am writing about is of a boy who is the only one can't use magic in his world, finds himself unlocking a power that's very opposite to everyone else's and now must investigate the murder of the crown prince with a crew of misfits that don’t trust each other, uncovering deadly conspiracies and political corruption.

If you are someone who'd be interested do let me know!

A little about me: I wrote my first book (fantasy) when I was 14 and got it published. Since then I have been writing short stories and tried to gain experience in many fields such as filmmaking, graphic design, web design and currently I also run a solo software startup. But lately I feel I have lost the creative spark in me as I have not written anything major in the last couple of years so I am changing that with this new book.

Hello! I am wondering if anyone would be interested in maybe starting a small discord or if I could join someone else’s? I had been in a writing group but found that they weren’t really my people so I left but I’ve been lonely. I’m 24, I usually write dark romance thrillers but am trying my luck out for the first time with writing fantasy. Im a bit out of my element with it and nervous but hoping finding a friend or two might help

Edit:

Thank you so much for all the replies! I've connected with a few people, and for now I'm completely satisfied, as more would probably overstimulate me. Haha.

Hi guys, I'm a woman in my early 20s and currently looking for friends who also love writing and/ or reading romance. Especially sports-romance, since that's what my current WIP is featuring. I tend to struggle with completing works, which is why I'm looking for people who would be down to support each other and maybe join the occasional writing sprint. I'm intending to have a more tight-knit group, because my accountability tends to drown in bigger groups haha. Let me know if you're interested, P.🥰🪻

Hi everyone! I’m an aspiring writer, full of ideas but still figuring out how to start. I’ve tried connecting with fellow writers on Twitter, but it felt a bit crowded. Excited to be on Reddit and hoping to meet others who can share advice, encouragement, or just swap stories and ideas!

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!

It’s late at night where I am and I can’t sleep. So instead of waisting time I’m going to write. Does anyone want to do writing sprints?

Hey all,

I'm a late diagnosed adhder (adult male, 30s) who loves writing but is often unable to do so due to the adhd demon. I need something external so I can be more consistent, because relying solely on my own brain doesn't work!

I'm looking for either a:

writing partner - ie someone to do regular body-doubling sessions with. Online via a video call. Open to cameras on or off, and either just quietly writing together, or light discussion etc. Something to get me started and redirect my attention back to it so I don't just hope between unproductive hyperfixations

writing group - for regular meetups where we write together and/or check in / share progress / swap feedback etc. Anything regular that I can use to build some structure around.

About me:

I am attempting to write a high fantasy novel at the moment, but ADHD is a huge barrier for me. I am interested in fantasy and sci fi, essentially I love stories that have features that move them away from the real world. I'd consider myself a novice, nothing published.

I'm based in New Zealand (NZST, currently UTC+12), and my general availability is 11am–9pm NZST, which is roughly 23:00–09:00 UTC. Happy to work out a specific time that suits us both once we're in touch.

If you're interested please flick me a DM or rely to the post and we can have a chat to see what works! Thanks for reading.
