The Foundry’s Six Pillars

  • Events & Subplot Journeys

    The Foundry brings monthly events! Everything from live query workshops & Q&A Sessions, Live Chats with Industry Pros, vision boarding, DIY traveller’s journal, Wheel of the Year journaling sessions, and so, so much more.

  • Writing Challenges

    Every month brings a new writing challenge to help you hone your craft. Challenges include the opportunity share what you’ve created at the end of the month with a group of supportive attending writers. Rather do the challenges in your own time? That’s fine too! Take the Foundry at your own pace.

  • Community

    Do it all with a like-minded and supportive community at your back!

    With different groups available to you, like spaces for drafters, revisers, romance writers, fantasy writers, and more, there’s a place for everyone here!

  • Author & Industry Pro Takeovers

    Guest authors and industry pros will pop in periodically and take over our community chats! Be prepared to ask questions and learn all the inside scoops.

  • Live Query Workshops

    Querying writers will submit their queries to be critiqued live in bi-monthly sessions. It’s an hour of learning and gentle critiquing from a literary agent in a supportive group environment.

I am a forge where ideas are hammered into shape.
I hold the tools, but you bring the metal.
I am a library that is always being written.
I am a home for stories that have not yet been told.
