Moving your story forward
This week, online and in-person, at the Writers' Gym
Enormous thanks to everyone who wrote or sponsored the writers this weekend: Green Ink Sponsored Write 2024 smashed our target for Macmillan Cancer Support. With fifteen years of events for Macmillan in Green Ink Sponsored Write and Writers’ Gym history, it’s such a pleasure to be working with a growing community of loyal writers, editors and readers. Thank you all SO much. If you sponsored us through the page and haven’t received your digital anthology, check your spam folder! If still no joy, get in touch at thewritersgym@rachelknightley.com.

Rachel- I love the concept of a ‘writers’ gym.’ It really highlights the fact that it is a skill set that needs up keeping. I appreciate it.
