You're Invited!
Write with us for our November Writing Challenge.
We’re hosting our second annual November writing challenge for women in the messy middle of life who write.
Every November hundreds of thousands of writers from around the world commit to their writing goals.
The most famous of these writing goal projects is called National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), in which writers attempt to write a novel during November. For others, their goal is a nonfiction book, or a memoir, or something else entirely. There’s a feeling of momentum and community that comes from this group experience. Whether you want to try writing a large project or freewrite in your journal each day, we’d like to extend an invitation to you to participate in HerStories’ own November Writing Challenge.

"The workshop helped me create space in my life to re-engage with my inner writer."
It was just enough structure to direct my creative energy, with just the right amount of flexibility to make it work for me. It was an easy re-entry into writing. Every day I looked forward to the part of the day I could spend reading about writing and then actually writing. A very positive experience.
Have a question?
The challenge is held on our own private community platform, off of Facebook. The platform features profiles, instant messaging, groups, and online meeting spaces.
On the first day of the challenge, we will survey our paid members to find out their best meeting times. We’ll then schedule a mix of times to accomodate different schedules and time zones.
No, you absolutely do not have to write every single day. At the start of the month, you’ll create your own writing plan and set individual goals.
Both plans are held in the same community platform. Paid group members will have an additional set of spaces for private Zoom meetings and individualized feedback from the instructors. They’ll receive a daily lesson, exercise, or prompt to use to guide their writing for the day, if they choose.
You can always join for free, take a look around, and then join the paid experience if you like what you see!
You’ll still have access to the community platform and be able to join additional workshops and groups.
Of course! Contact Jessica ([email protected]) for special group pricing.
