Writing can be a solitary endeavor, but it doesn’t have to be with Black Writers Collective. We connect you with a network of fellow creatives for inspiration and feedback and support you in numerous ways.
Black Writers Collective brings together a selection of programs to help you in conquering writers block, developing the writing habit, gaining constructive feedback, and getting advice on writing and publishing your books, plus referrals to vetted freelance editors and publishing consultants to help you avoid wasting time and money.
We offer resources that include digital downloads on the craft and business of writing, free beta reader queries, calls for submissions, and book promotional opportunities to help make it easier for you to reach your goals.
We distribute job leads and writing gigs at no charge from organizations and individuals seeking applicants of color to our members-only announcement list, offering employers the option of sharing to our 21K-organic following on Twitter.
Our innovative, private critique and interest groups for fiction and nonfiction authors are the heart of our online community. We also host monthly meet-and-greets, support groups, and live weekly writing sessions for all members.
While the organization has transitioned significantly since its inception, the core principles, values and mission have remained the same. We strive to empower writers throughout our community to help further their chances of success, by whatever their measures of success may be, lending support, nurturing, encouragement, guidance, feedback, and facilitating the sharing of opportunities with and within our member base.
