WRITING IN COMMUNITY
CHANGES EVERYTHING!
The Sit Write Here Mindful Writing Community
is designed to provide daily support on your writing journey.
SIT: Every co-writing session starts with 15 minutes of insight meditation to help you let go of distractions and find focus.
WRITE: Then we write for one hour. When you carve out one focused hour,on a regular basis, you make steady progress toward finishing your work.
HERE: After we write, we talk for a few minutes about how it's going. We also have weekly Q&A sessions and we meet up in person whenever we can at writing conferences.
Attend one meeting a week for 8 weeks and get professional feedback on up to 4,000 words (more details below).
BETTER THAN A WORKSHOP
The workshop model is outdated. It was designed in the mid-20th century for an academic audience that was almost exclusively young, white, and cis-gendered male. But here's the thing: even if you are young, white, and male you will benefit (creatively, professionally, socially), as we all do, from being around different kinds of writers. Let's all bring our unique selves to the writing room, shall we?
Workshop
- ❌ Doesn't help you make time to write
- ❌ Provides feedback from random writers not working in your genre
- ❌ Requires you to give notes (which takes up time you could spend writing)
- ❌ No structure for continued support
- ❌ Not always a safe space
Sit Write Here Community
- ✅ Join daily co-writing sessions
- ✅ Receive feedback from a professional writing coach working in your genre
- ✅ Swap pages with other members, but only if you really want to
- ✅ Know that we're here for you, every day
- ✅ Feel safe and supported in your writing journey
"What I’ve learned from April and my fellow participants has made an incalculable improvement in my writing routine."

TRANSFORM YOUR WRITING LIFE
Imagine a place where you can meet like-minded writers, drop into that creative flow you’ve been searching for, and (when you're ready) get professional feedback on your pages. The Sit Write Here Mindful Writing Community is designed to bring you closer to your writing goals—every day.
DAILY WRITING SESSIONS
Every day at 9:30 am PT
Our 90-minute co-writing sessions begin with a guided 15-minute meditation to help you center and prepare for focused writing. After 60 minutes of dedicated writing time, we wrap up with 15 minutes to connect, celebrate, and share.
PROFESSIONAL FEEDBACK ON YOUR PAGES
Attend just one meeting a week for 8 consecutive weeks and earn yourself a SANGHA TOKEN. Trade in your token for professional feedback on up to 4,000 words of your manuscript, or save them up to submit more pages at once. Tokens are good for one year and there's no limit to how many you can earn.
WEEKLY Q&A SUPPORT
Wednesdays at 11 am PT
This is where writers get live, personalized support from seasoned coaches and peers. And if you miss a session, don't worry. All Q&A meetings are recorded and available on-demand.
A WONDERFUL COMMUNITY
In the Mindful Writing Community, you’re never alone on your writing journey. Whether you’re just starting out or deep in the writing trenches, this community is here to cheer you on, share insights, and celebrate the wins (big and small). You’ll never feel like “just another writer.” You’re part of a team here.
I would not have finished my book without April and her incredible community. The accountability, the solidarity, the support, the mindfulness. It really changed my experience of the writing life and I'm so grateful.
- Emma Pattee
I KNOW HOW HARD YOU'RE WORKING
I see you. I see you caring for everyone in your life, going above and beyond for your employer/children/spouse/parents/pets and STILL somehow making time for your writing. Your commitment and perseverance are amazing, and I have no doubt that you will finish your book.
I also know how hard it can be to try and do this alone. Writers need support. We need a place to ask questions, to get inspired, to get feedback, and to actually get some damn work done.
That's why I created the Sit Write Here mindful writing community: get words on the page, get advice when you need it, and make serious progress toward finishing your manuscript.
Because the world needs your story now, more than ever.
"I love having Tuesday/Thursday 9:30 on the calendar for the rest of the year to keep me on track!"

"The meditation makes the group unique…
It's a great community!" - Jen
After your free trial, your membership will continue automatically at the monthly rate of $129, unless you choose to cancel. We hope you’ll feel the transformative benefits of mindfulness in your writing and want to stay with us!
Membership in the Mindful Writing Community is month-to-month and you can cancel any time with the click of a button, but we're guessing you won't want to ☺️.
The mindful writing community is for all kinds of writers. We have fiction writers, memoirists, screenwriters, science writers, poets, and some who just can't decide. We are all at different stages of our writing journey, from retired hobbyists to published authors and everything in between. If you write, you're a writer, and you belong here.
No worries! All our mastermind sessions, including our guest speakers, are recorded and available to watch on your schedule. You can email a question ahead of time and get your answer in the recording that evening. You’ll never miss out on valuable guidance and community support.
Our daily writing sessions are 90 minutes (15 minutes of meditation, 60 minutes of writing, and 15 minutes of social time), but you can arrive late or leave early if you need to (some writing is always better than no writing!).
In fact, most of our members don't come to every session. Most choose 2-4 meetings a week to put on their calendar and attend regularly.
Even if you only attend twice a week, you'll find that committing to those sessions every week makes a huge difference in your writing progress.
Each daily writing session starts with a 15-minute guided meditation to help you calm your mind, focus, and enter a creative flow state. This mindfulness practice is designed to ease any mental blocks, helping you tap into deeper creativity and productivity for your writing time.
We strive to make the Mindful Writing Community accessible and welcoming to all writers. We have structured our meetings based on the principals outlined in the Anti-Racist Writing Workshop and Craft in the Real World. We ask that all community members read and agree to our Agreements for Community Interactions.
Not at all! Each meditation is beginner-friendly and guided, so you don’t need prior experience with mindfulness. These practices are designed to make it easy for anyone to relax, focus, and get into a productive flow.
UNMATCHED VALUE
Imagine having over 30 hours of guided, focused writing sessions and 4+ hours of live coaching available every single month. PLUS the opportunity to get professional feedback on your pages.
That’s the kind of support and structure you get as a member of the Mindful Writing Community, and it’s all for less than the cost of a single private coaching session.
It has all the benefits of a one-off workshop, without all the downsides of an outdated model.
Unlike standalone courses or sporadic coaching, the Mindful Writing Community gives you a daily practice, accountability, and personalized support in an ongoing, sustainable way—so you can keep writing, stay inspired, and make real progress every month.
