What Is Draft Dash?

Draft Dash is a month-long writing challenge taking place from November 1-30, where writers come together to focus on progress over perfection.

It’s about building momentum, creating a routine, and—most importantly—supporting each other as we chase our writing goals. Whether you’re aiming for 1,000 words or 75,000, there’s a spot for you in this community.

Draft Dash is designed to be flexible and motivating. You can choose your own challenge level and tackle your project at a pace that works for you—while getting all the support and encouragement you need along the way!

So, how does it work? Throughout the month, you’ll have access to live workshops (and the replays), Q&As, writing sprints, and even chair yoga designed especially for writers. Plus, we’ll have virtual writing parties where we can all cheer each other on!

Workshops + Live events

Join workshops, writing sprints, virtual parties, chair yoga for writers, Breath Breaks, and so much more!

Live Q&A + Story Doctor sessions

Get direct answers to your burning questions about any aspect of writing in our interactive Q&A events and Story Doctor drop-ins with an experienced creativity coach.
