Communities for writers of all kinds, from fiction and screenwriting to technical writing and journalism. Discord and Reddit have large general writing communities for feedback and accountability, with more specialized groups for specific genres, craft topics, and publication paths like self-publishing and traditional querying.
Hive Index lists 2 Writing x communities on X / Twitter. We only have a handful of listings so far, so treat these numbers as directional. The main Writing topic page covers every platform we track for this topic.
Forum is the most common feature (100% of listings).
All 2 listings on this page are free to join (no paid membership or application gate listed). Access rules can still change on the community side.
On Hive Index, the default Popular sort surfaces #WritingCommunity and KidLit Writers of Color first. Popularity reflects visitor interest in communities on the site, not a universal quality score. Use the sort menu for Ratings, Largest, or Newest.
Listings are submitted by community builders and researchers, reviewed for topic relevance, and updated with platform, feature, member, review, and traffic data where available. Member counts are approximate. Popular reflects visitor interest in communities on the site, with richer profiles breaking ties. Ratings, Largest, and Newest use review scores, reported member counts, and listing age instead.
This page was last updated 12/23/2021, based on the most recent change to the topic or its listings. We refresh entries when communities are submitted, claimed, or reviewed, and we update member counts, features, and traffic data on an ongoing basis.
