Hope*writers offers the support you need to move from hobby writer to working writer in three simple steps.
The world needs your hope-filled words more now than ever before.
Â
Hope*writers helps you discover, share, and publish your words without feeling lost, discouraged, or overwhelmed.

Stop Writing Alone
Find Your People and Share Your Words With Confidence
Â
Sharing your writing sounds easy — until it’s not. At first, it’s exciting... and then it just gets hard. No one responds. Someone unsubscribes. You start second-guessing yourself or even feel a little freaked out when people actually like it.
Yep, this is the moment you realize that writing and putting your work out there are two totally different things.
Making the jump from hobby writer to “real” writer is uncomfortable. You’re great at thinking deeply and making connections on your own, but sharing it online? That can feel like you’re playing a character.
And let’s be honest — Google just isn’t cutting it anymore. Sure, it’s full of tips on book proposals and social media strategies, but none of that prepares you for the vulnerability of sharing your words. Robots don’t get it — people do.
Before you decide it’s not worth the hassle, hear us out.
You’ve got two choices:
- Keep writing solo, playing it safe and comfortable.
- Find your community — people who get it, who support you, and who help you grow as a writer.
What if it didn’t have to feel so intimidating?
We’re here to make it easier — and help you find people who genuinely love what you do.
Hope*writers is a community of working writers dedicated to the success and creativity of each member.Â
Â
We take seriously the creative, social, and spiritual call to the deep work of sharing our stories and ideas with the people who need them the most.
We believe this because words have changed our worlds, shaped our narratives, and brought us back to life.
You need a go-to place and a solid plan with people who are doing the work and can respond directly to your questions about writing, publishing, and launching your work without going crazy.
Working alone is for hobbyists. If you're ready to stop dabbling and become a writer who writes words people want to read, join us.
