Become a Foster Member

Foster is a community devoted to the practice of writing for its own sake. Not because it will do something for your career (though it might!), nor because it will help you gain a ton of followers (though it might do that too!), but for the sheer joy of it.

Because the truth is you don’t have to identify as a Writer to enjoy the benefits of a writing practice. As the world around us becomes increasingly complex, chaotic, and confounding, writing remains one of the most reliable tools we have to root ourselves into more truthful, nourishing lives. Plus, we just feel better about ourselves when we write consistently. And that’s true whether we write for a living, for fun, or for some combination of the two.

If this path, and this practice, call to you, fill out the application below. You’ll jump on a call with one of us, and if it’s a good fit, we’ll get you set up as a member so you can start writing with us right away.
