Write to be Read

Write to be Read is Prose Playground's premium membership community for writers of all genres who are serious about their craft. Founded by Joselin Linder, the community is built on the philosophy that writing groups are essential to sustained creative development, providing both the social infrastructure and the structured engagement that most writers cannot build on their own. Members participate in organized writing groups for regular peer critique and manuscript feedback, creating a disciplined rhythm of writing and review within a supportive, community-first environment. The community also hosts writing classes led by Joselin and seminars featuring guest speakers from the publishing industry, including New York Times editors and accomplished authors who bring real-world expertise into the curriculum. Past guests have included Modern Love editor Dan Jones and New York Times Op-Ed editor Peter Catapano, who led a four-week masterclass on writing resonant essays. Annual membership and Writing Group subscriptions give members flexible access to the community and the broader program of classes, workshops, and events throughout the year.
