Explore the Forge

Forge your story.

The publishing industry is overwhelmed. With far too many submissions, and not enough editors and agents, many amazing works never get to readers. Publishers only accept the stories they believe will sell, which means they don’t like taking risks on new authors or genre-breaking ideas. Creative writers can spend years sending hundreds of submissions to editors. Yet they receive only a few responses in return. Worse yet, the response is usually to change the story so it is what the publishers think will sell. The writer is then left to decide whether to stick to their vision or make the changes to potentially get published. Nobody deserves to have to make that choice.

StoryForge was created to change the system. On our writing platform, you can motivate yourself with daily challenges and rewards. Or you can get support through a Writer’s Circle. Wherever you are in your story, you can find readers who are interested and excited to provide helpful feedback. Best of all, you always know how far you are from publication. There’s a progress bar! As your story reaches its final polished form, you will already have a community of loving fans. Now you’re ready to publish successfully.
