Join the Spec Fic Variety Hour Group

Groups are the backbone of the Loft. You don't even have to be a member to join.

Join the spec fictionados once a month to discuss short stories, learn about speculative fiction, and just have a fun time!

Just sign up through the link and we'll reach out!

We're bringing back our YA crit group!

Join us as we rebuild our popular YA crit group! Sign up and we'll email you when we have a schedule and leaders! 

It's free to join a group at the Loft. We ask that you donate when you visit (even virtually) so we can pay for the tools that keep these groups afloat!

We're starting a Romance group at the Loft

Let's talk everything from hot genres to feeding our newsletter lists.

Sign up and we'll let you know when this (virtual) group gets its first meet-cute. 

We'll compare best practices and even do some newsletter swaps!

Become a Member

Go all in and join! We have two membership types, and depending on which one you choose, you get full access to the exclusive Loft online community forum (privately hosted; not on social media sites), or unlimited drop-ins to our space in Hudson MA.

Both memberships give a 10% discount on all workshops and classes, and publication opportunities like our latest anthology, Gnomes & Ungnomes!

Help keep the Loft afloat!
