Write November

We're writing a novel whatever makes us feel good in November

1 – 30 November 2025

We're writing! In November!

Sounds familiar, huh?

WELL.

We’re writing the shit out of November, and that means whatever you want it to mean. Holy vague project brief, Manbat!

Look, we love the big ambition of blatting out tens of thousands of words in a month, but for a lot of people getting that done just isn’t possible. Or it is possible but it’s a one way ticket to Burnout Town, and then you’re worse off off than when you started.

So we’re flipping the script.

During Write November, we’re challenging you to write something that makes you feel GREAT. To set yourself a realistic writing goal and explore a creative practice that’s joyful, sustainable and, ya know, fun. Join us!

Novelember? Nov-short-story-ber? Flashober? Whatever.

We’re writing whatever makes us feel good in November

“Writers’ HQ is quite simply writer heaven. An inexhaustible source of knowledge, good advice and stimulation, this community is the perfect place to share passions and feed off of the positive energy of a truly wonderful bunch of human writerbeings.”

– Terry H

“WHQ has given me the courage and tools to turn a vague notion of trying to write into my driving passion, along with the support and wonderful company of the most amazing people I have ever encountered. There are no words for how much this has enhanced my life.”

– Heather H

Read this before going to the forum!

The widget that lets you sign into the forum with your WHQ login has given up. 

We are trying to coax it back into existence. So far neither bribery, begging or crying has worked. We are currently trying shaking our fists at the sky and going ‘grrrr’.

You can still get to the forum though! Do this:

  1. Click the button below
  2. On the forum login page, click reset password USING THE SAME EMAIL YOU USE FOR WHQ
  3. Click the link in the email and reset your password

IMPORTANT: This means you will have TWO (2) passwords/logins. One for the WHQ main site and one for the forum. It’s a pain in the arse. We’re sorry. It is temporary, but at least you can dick about on the forum again. OKAY BYE. 

Once you hit the button, you’ll get a confirmation email, and we’ll send you the Zoom link an hour before the event. 

Check your inbox for details. 

If you don’t get an email, check your spam fist and then wang us a line on he**@**********co.uk and we’ll leap into action with keenness and speed.
