Our Mission

WriteHive seeks to foster a safe, diverse community and provide free, inclusive events and resources for all writers, especially those from marginalized communities.

What We Do

WriteHive hosts an array of programming dedicated to breaking the paywall for authors looking to advance their writing. Check out our events page for more details.

How You Can Help

WriteHive is run solely by volunteers. You can help by volunteering to help at an event or behind the scenes or donate to our Silent Auction or general fund, which helps pay for meeting and translation services for our conferences.

Why WriteHive?

01.

It's FREE

Everything we do is free

02.

Inclusive

Our vision is to create a supportive and empowering literary community, especially for marginalized individuals

03.

Multifaceted Community

We don't just cater to the traditional author pathway. WH believes that indie press and self-pub authors should share the bookshelf with traditionally published books. Thus, our workshops, event, and programming reflect that.
