Writing Communities

Looking to talk with other writers? Here is a convenient list of sites, forums, and communities you can join. Remember, the key to growing is to have active communication and discussion. Most social groups look down on self-promotion and constantly telling other authors to check out your work. These groups are for discussion. We’ll include links to self promotion pages below.
