You Love to Write. Now What?
Maybe you’re wondering how to get published, how to make your writing stronger, or are dreaming about where your creativity might take you next.
But, first things first: writers write. They follow ideas, try out possibilities, work through questions, and learn from other writers along the way.
You know what can sometimes get in the way?
Trying to start perfectly.
… or continue perfectly.
… or finish perfectly.
That’s why at Inklings, we like to remind one another: There’s no one perfect place to start.
Instead, try asking yourself:
What would move me forward, just one step, today?
I want a fresh idea.
Spark ideas for a new character who just might lead somewhere interesting.
Maybe a tip?
Collect solutions from other youth writers about what’s worked for them.
Unblock me!
Figure out what’s in the way and make a quick-and-easy plan to move forward.
Oof. I need a pep talk.
Everyone does, sometimes. Here’s some inspiration to carry you forward.
Not sure? Choose whichever one sparks your curiosity first. You can always come back and try another later.
You’ve just experienced a taste of what Society of Young Inklings is all about. Inside membership, you’ll find more of the same: a youth community brimming with curiosity, committed writers, creative tools, and thoughtful support.
