Question 1

What genres are welcome?

Accepted Answer

Basically anything that falls into nonfiction: self-help, memoir, essays, biography, etc. We love fiction at The Writers Room, but this cohort is specifically for nonfiction writers.

Question 2

Do I have to have a full manuscript already?

Accepted Answer

No. The only requirement is that you’re serious about the craft of writing.

Question 3

Will you help me get published?

Accepted Answer

Yes and no. We’re not agents or publishing pros—we’re experts in creating books. But we will provide a plethora of resources, connections, and past experiences to help you navigate the publishing process.

Question 4

What will a typical meeting look like?

Accepted Answer

We'll start with a quick chat to start, followed by a brief tip or teaching from your writing coach, Rachel Miller. Then, two or three members will have the floor to workshop their writing or anything related to their work. We'll conclude with accountability checks and a bit of creative inspiration to motivate us until the following meeting!

Question 5

What if I can’t make every meeting?

Accepted Answer

That’s okay, life happens! But we do want you to attend as many as possible. Your commitment to this group is actually a commitment to your own writing—and you’re worth the investment.

We'll send out meeting notes and resources for members who have to miss.

Question 6

When and where will we meet?

Accepted Answer

We will meet virtually. The next cohort's launch date and time has not been set—but if you apply for the waitlist, you'll be the first to find out the details!
