Top Websites for Writers: 10 Online Writing Communities 1. CAMP NANOWRIMO campnanowrimo.org Conceived as the “summer camp” version of November’s National Novel Writing Month, Camp NaNoWriMo facilitates a virtual writing retreat each April and July to help you reach your writing goals. Bunk with up to 19 other writers in “cabins” to create your personal writing community, and stop using “waiting till November” as an excuse to put off finishing your novel. 2. CRITIQUE CIRCLE critiquecircle.com No matter your genre, you’ll receive thoughtful, thorough feedback at Critique Circle. This community— 3,000-plus active members—thrives on a point system that requires members to write a critique before even submitting a story (becoming a premium member for $10/month allows you to skip this step, but you’re still required to offer critiques later on). Critiques must be thorough, too: You’ll be “graded” by authors on the strength of your feedback. 3. CRITTERS WORKSH...

There are two kinds of people that fight to succeed. Those guided and driven by a purpose and those that are just afraid of failing. So which are you?

Writer’s block. Every writer struggles with it. But what you do with it is what really matters. Before we talk about solutions, though, let’s talk about the problem. Common causes of writer’s block The reasons for your block may vary, but some common ones include: Timing: It’s simply not the right time to write.

But! This is not a replacement for a professional editor or an editing tool like grammarly. I am not a paragon of literature knowledge. I do have my days—annoying typos and wrong use of adjectives. So consider me your beta-reader. I can only accept six books in a month. Hence the name—Six Books Reviews. RULES 1. I am okay with every genre aside Romance, Chicklit, and Erotica. Sorry guys, but I get sleepy reading those genres. Besides, I don’t want to...
