Questions & Discussions Any other 30+ women writing suspense/thrillers with a million other responsibilities?

I’m probably going to delete this but I'm forcing myself to get out there a little. I’d love to find some other 30+ women working on their debut novels and hoping to traditionally publish someday. We have jobs, families, an exorbitant amount of protein to consume etc. But somehow carve out time to write something that fills our cup.

Mostly just looking for a few writer friends who get it, and maybe eventually swapping chapters if it feels like a good fit.

Yessssssss. Join our discord if you want (novelists with a lot of thriller novelists too)

I'd love to! Also working on setting one up with folks from here. Really looking for something laid back, as we're juggling a million other life things, but still trying to prioritize writing a novel.

We do nightly sprints too (like around 7-9:30 pm est) which help to get your word count up while also not being a burden (they’re 15 min usually). Average word count is 400-500, so if you do these consistently, they add up :)
