📖 Introducing Writers' Hour Magazine & Our New Weekly Writing Contest!
Stretch your creative muscles. Win cash prizes. Connect with fellow writers.
At the London Writers' Salon, our goal is to encourage and nurture writers of all kinds.
From our daily Writers’ Hour writing sprints, to community meetups and in-depth interviews and workshops, our mission is to inspire creativity and help writers get closer to their creative goals.
We aim to build the most vibrant and supportive corner of the internet for writers to connect, learn, and grow alongside others from around the globe. Whether you’re writing your very first draft, starting a journaling practice, or polishing a manuscript, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
To continue this mission, we’re excited to announce the launch of Writers' Hour Magazine and our Weekly Writers’ Hour Contest, designed to support your creative exploration and celebrate your talent.
