"We yelled. We shamed them. We even told them they were better than this. It didn’t matter." This is a fragment of Alexander's testimony, he's an educator from Minnesota.

StoryForge was built on the belief that everyone deserves to have their voice heard, especially when our community is under pressure.

Felling a little stuck in your writing? Get a d6 and let's fix that! What's your next story about according to fate? 👀 #writersblock #creativewriting #writingchallenge

What's your favorite reading trope? 👀 #booksky

Authors shouldn't have to write that's "commercial" just to get a chance at their stories being read! The whole point of art is to create what comes from your heart, what you're passionate about, what speaks to your soul! #booksky

Let's play a game! The first word you find will describe your next read. Leave it in the comments and let others recommend you titles according to it! Bonus points if they're available on StoryForge 👀 #booksky

Let's shape the future of publishing together!! ❤️ If you’ve ever wanted to be more involved in the community, now’s your chance!

Welcome to a writing community created by authors, for authors and book lovers. A community that celebrates queer voices, diverse authors, all types of indie and niche stories. #booksky

WE WANT TO READ YOUR STORY! It's easy to get lost in social media nowadays and try to chase popularity, but it's also tiring and we end up losing focus of what's important: writing what you love, connecting with your community, reaching your readers! ❤️

Life is way too scary right now, it's normal that your brain defaults into doomscrolling to take a breather. But let's be honest, we kind of hate it. Let's do something else! We can start by talking about the latest book we've read in the comments, maybe you find your next read too? 👀❤️ #booksky

StoryForge is built on the belief that people deserve to exist without fear. As a Minnesota based company, the pain and violence hitting our home and all over the world is hitting very close to our hearts.

Look, creating a startup is something incredibly hard to do. We didn't build StoryForge just because we wanted a "business".

I think we’re all exhausted of being told our work only matters if it gets thousands of readers. Every time I tell someone I'm a writer they joke and ask if I'm a best seller yet, and that really hurts.

Small life update, today I started working with @story-forge.bsky.social, helping with their site's design. I was looking for some new design work recently and while this isn't a permanent solution for me (it's part-time), I'm really excited to be able to help out with this project.

You're building your masterpiece little by little. Every sentence, paragraph, and plot twist that doesn’t quite land is a step toward becoming a better writer 💖 ⭐ You can still join 30K in 30 Days to write with us this November, head to https://storyforge.com/30kin30days for more info 💖 #booksky

The countdown is on! 30K in 30 Days begins soon and we’re celebrating with a LIVE Kickoff Party on our YouTube and Instagram! Who knows? Maybe we'll have our first writing sprint during the party 😎👀 Do you have any questions about 30K in 30 Days? Leave them here and we'll answer them live #booksky

We believe that art and storytelling are acts of resistance, small but mighty ways to fight back against silence and fear You can grab your piece of rebellion at our Redbubble store https://www.redbubble.com/people/storyforge Every purchase helps us keep making publishing accessible for everyone 💖

You're telling me you love indie authors and don’t own Voices Like These, a collection written by TWENTY OF THEM?? Make it make sense.

Reading Voices Like These is like walking into twenty different dreams, and every single one asks: “Can you hold this emotion for me?” And you do. …and it changes you a little. #booksky

20 opportunities to fall in love with a story. You want a story that’ll wreck you? It’s in there. You want something funny and unhinged? It’s in there. You want queer joy, parenthood pain, unsettling horror, emotional gut-punches? IN. THERE. Why are you still reading this. Go get it!!!

A writing challenge made for real people with lives, jobs, and maybe three different WIPs fighting for attention 👀 Write 30k words in November. That’s it. And you can even start prepping with us! Check out our official Writing Circle at storyforge.com/30kin30days  #booksky

No one warns you that publishing an anthology will make you feel like a sleep-deprived librarian with twenty beloved children, all screaming in different genres. (Please buy the book, I love these authors and they deserve all the love in the world) #booksky

The support we have had so far for Voices Like These is so overwhelming, thank you all so much for supporting us and our authors!! If you haven't gotten a copy yet, what are you waiting for? 👀 We even have the e-book at a discount right now at https://storyforge.com/anthology 🤭 #booksky

🚨 Big news! 🚨 StoryForge 2.0 launches TOMORROW at 12 PM CT (1700 UTC)! We’ve been working on this new version for nearly a year, and we can’t wait for you to see it. What are you expecting to find in the new version? 👀

Remember that your story is unique and shouldn’t be confined to a word count!! With that being said, knowing about story lengths is useful if you want to submit them for publications. So let's talk about them! #booksky
