Writing.com

I love Writing.Com. There are so many ways to express my love of writing. And every day there are new activities to inspire me. I am so grateful to have found a site like this.

With that said, the site is a bit daunting for newcomers. However, the tools and features are well worth learning. Customer service is great and there are resources such as articles and forums for developing one's own writing style.

As a member since 2000, I can tell you that not only has this site helped me grow as a writer; it has also become a second home. First, I want to clear up a misconception. I've seen other reviews bashing the membership aspect, but I don't think those users understood the concept. Membership is free. Yes, you can purchase different levels for extra features. But at $10 for 3 months (or 1 year for $20), a basic membership is pretty darn affordable. We also have a couple of angel groups that can help out with the cost for those that need a little help. Not to mention the contests with memberships as prizes. I personally won a 1-year Premium membership. Twice.
Whether you enjoy writing for the fun of it, are looking to polish your skills before publishing, or just looking for something to read, I encourage you to give it a chance. In my 20 years, I've come across one unfriendly user. That's it. Our members and staff are always welcoming. There is literally something for everyone.

Writing.com, or WDC, offers many many ways to write, from novels, to poetry, to essays and countless more options., but also to do nothing but read.
There are also many ways to interact with other members, readers, writers. Get reviews and ratings for your work or rate and review others, take part in competitions or forums or review clubs and so much more.
Membership can be free or there are several, affordable paid memberships which offer a lot.
I can't imagine my life without WDC. It's home for me.

The writing.com site is a place where all manner of aspiring and published authors can practice the craft of writing. There are contests, newsfeed, blogs, prompts, forums where like-minded people come together to learn about writing, and to socialize. Indeed, if you are just wanting to read some great material, writing.com is the site for you! Reviews and encouraged. The site is extremely member-driven and not micro-managed. The best user experience can be found with an Upgraded membership level, which is very affordable, but you can join for free and see if you like it. Many people will help, you have only to ask. Many of us have been there for years, and one thing WdC definitely ISN'T is boring--you will always have an almost overwhelming amount of things to write about, join, read, and enjoy. Creativity at its best, and I consider it my online home. Enjoy!

My favorite writing site, a home for writers of all skill levels to share their words. There are all sorts of tools available to help make the writing experience truly your own, with the opportunity to have your work reviewed, as well as provide reviews for your fellow authors.

I love to write, but my crochet business has kept me pretty busy. I hope to get back to my writing soon. WDC has been great and the members are so encouraging and helpful. I never thought I could write anything, but entering contests and receiving honest reviews from fellow authors was just what I needed. I hope to be back soon.

I've been homeless many times, and had to throw away my writing because I only had physical copies of it. Now that I have a membership at Writing.com, I can store my writing as I work on it, and if I move, I don't have to worry about carrying physical copies of my work with me.

The staff are helpful, I've been a member off and on since 2000. It's a real community, with people who are creating stories and sharing their work and their positivity.

I have never seen such a great arrangement of writers and customer service all at once. Before I had the good fortune to come across writing.com, I have always felt either the lack of good writers or the lack of good customer service. They undoubtedly bridge this gap for me.
