START HERE! Welcome to WRITE! CLUB

The kind, supportive space to nurture your writing, your creativity and yourself.

What is WRITE! CLUB?

It’s a kind, supportive space for nurturing your writing, your creativity and your self.

Who am I?

I’m Sophie Nicholls, bestselling author, creative writing teacher/ facilitator and researcher in writing and health and I’d love to support you in creating a nourishing and restorative writing practice.

Who is WRITE! CLUB for?

It’s a club for anyone and everyone who’d like to start writing, keep writing and explore their creativity through writing.

If you’re just starting out as a writer, asking yourself questions like ‘Can I write?’ or ‘Can I call myself a writer if I’ve never published my work?’ this is the space for you.

If you’re an experienced writer or creative, feeling stuck, weary or burnt out, this space and community can help you to find deep rest and to reconnect with your flow.

Perhaps writing is a deeply private process for you. It is for me too. But it can be hard to make the quiet and kind spaces we need for our creativity to thrive. I’ve learned that it can be incredibly helpful to have a community of supportive people around you.

You can join us as:

A free subscriber OR a paid subscriber.
Paid subscribers pay either £12 (GBP) per month or £120 (GBP) per year.

✒︎ FREE SUBSCRIBERS:
As a free subscriber, you’ll have access to roughly one post per month, which might be a video, writing prompt or audio track, and you’ll get some sneak peaks into some of the things happening in the Club.

✒︎ PAID SUBSCRIBERS:
As a paid subscriber, you’ll have access to everything in WRITE! CLUB.

This includes:

✨ A MONTHLY VIDEO✨
I send this at the beginning of each month. In my videos, I talk about inspiration that I’d like to share with you, including books and poems, other things I’ve found useful and A MONTHLY WRITING INVITATION, which I’ll guide you through.

✨ WRITE! Together✨
Our very supportive writing session in real-time on Zoom every other month. We spend an hour writing together in response to a theme, text or idea and then share our thoughts and reflections. The first part of the session is recorded so that you can join in later if you can't make it in real time. The discussion part of each session isn’t recorded, in order to honour confidentiality.

For 2025, these live sessions will happen in February, April, June, August and December, usually on a Saturday or Sunday. Paid subscribers will receive all the dates and times in advance so that you can plan them in your calendars.

✨ Community ✨
Lots of commenting and sharing in the comments.

✨ Bonus mini-courses! You’ll also get access to two lovingly researched and curated mini-courses, Creative Rest and Core Practices. They include audio tracks, writing experiments and links to further resources that you can work through at your own pace in the way that feels best for you.

⚡️ My full archive of posts.
These include over fifty additional posts with inspiration, resources, and writing experiments, all with a holistic approach.

💜 When you buy a subscription, you’re also supporting me in continuing to make some of my posts and resources free to as many people as I can. Thank you so much. 🙏
