This is a book club designed for authors.

Our goal is to delve deep into the world's best books about the writing craft.

It's a two-part process: 

  • First, we'll read through the books as readers and simply enjoy the ride. 
  • Then, we'll revisit the books with a critical eye, taking notes and having discussions to apply our takeaways to our own processes. 


We strongly believe that "writers should be readers," because critical reading is an invaluable foundation for your writing. 

Once the year is underway, we'll be sharing suggested reading milestones, providing reading questions to guide your process, and hosting live discussions.
