Few people who aren’t writers can understand the highs and lows of a writing life, irrespective of how supportive they may sound of your goals!
Authors need writing communities to connect with people who share the same mindset and passion for writing and who can truly understand the tribulations, frustrations, and challenges being faced by a writer who is penning down his or her thoughts or ideas or in the middle of building a plot or story.
A Writing Community is extremely helpful for writers:
