Ask the mods firstLinks permitted

Can you promote here?

Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.

Links

The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.

What this community rewards

Dominant post formats: showcase, question, discussion

Headline = direct request ("Rate my writing", "Constructive criticism needed"). Write in first person; open with a short context sentence and paste a brief excerpt (50–600 words) or include a Google Docs/Wattpad link. Tone = earnest, vulnerable, eager for feedback. Typical post length = short title + brief body + excerpt. Upvoted = clear requests for critique that show effort; posts that just advertise without asking for feedback are risky.

Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.

Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked September 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/writersgroup's rules page before posting anything that matters.

Thread Otter checks this before every send

These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
