Writers Group

The Writers’ Group is a nurturing and inspiring online community that provides group mentorship, targeted guidance, and practical support for new and emerging writers.

This community is designed for pre-published romance and women’s fiction writers whose professional aim is publication, and have self-directed or institutional experience writing. Maybe you’ve taken a writing class or been part of a writing group. Maybe you already have a writing practice, have read a few craft books, have completed a draft, and/or are part of a literary community.

If you want to start, finish, or revise a novel or longer project, the Writers’ Group is for you.

  • “Georgia created a safe space for all of us aspiring writers to explore what we could do. She guided each of us with gentle encouragement while also providing real insight into what the writing and publishing process is like. She meets all writers in the group where they are, and gives us the tools to advance and meet their writing goals. I highly recommend her Writers’ Group to anyone looking for support on their writing journey.”

    — Amanda For

  • “Georgia’s Writers’ Group was exactly what I needed to complete my first draft and find the confidence to keep going. Unlike all the other things I’ve tried, this group has all the elements to best support me in writing a book: led by a published author, bolstered by fellow aspiring writers, and strengthened by chats with industry professionals. The consistency in meeting monthly, for an entire year has helped cultivate that comfort of a tribe, assuring me that while this thing we’re doing is hard, we’re all in it together.”

    — Michelle Hickey

  • Participating in this community has been the most impactful experience in my writing journey. I completed the first draft of my romantic comedy in 5 months. Being surrounded by like-minded people has provided the accountability, encouragement, and feedback I needed to pursue my dream of becoming a professional author. Georgia's guidance, mentorship, and thoughtful edits have been especially invaluable. If you're a pre-debut novelist looking for support, this is the place to be.

  • “I’ve been impressed and motivated by the monthly feedback in Georgia’s Writers Group. Each month we dive into new pieces and discuss what works and what doesn’t. As we get to know each other, the encouragement on our Slack and via workshop has grown. Setting monthly goals has motivated me to get more words on the page!”

    — Shannon Whitney

  • “The Writers’ Group has exceeded my expectations—from learning, group critique sessions and feedback from Georgia—she’s created a supportive writing community and gives 1:1 attention and coaching at the same time. My writing practice has improved in quality and in speed!”

    — Sarah Costanza

  • “Becoming part of Georgia Clark’s year-long writer’s group has changed my relationship with writing for the better. She curates an environment where all writers are accepted and welcomed. Working with her and this group of writers has allowed me fully step into myself as a writer and finally work on the book of my heart. I recommend this to anyone looking for a writing community that truly helps you flourish.”

The Writers’ Group offers:

  • Your thorough notes, delivered verbally and in written summary, will identify what is working, as well as offer critique and actionable suggestions. They are designed to be informative, inspiring, and helpful.

  • Writers will be invited to set monthly, quarterly, and a yearly goal, i.e. completing the first (or final!) draft of a novel. In each session, we’ll check in on your progress and you’ll have time to ask questions about any challenges. This is a place to show up as a writer.

  • Each month, I will candidly discuss a craft or industry-focused topic relevant to pre-published writers, such as how to revise or working with an agent. There will be time for discussion.

  • Throughout the year, we’ll have intimate Q+As with publishing professionals and published authors. Past industry guests have included acquiring editors at major houses, professional freelance editors, marketing experts, and more.
