Welcome to Worldsmyths!
We are a community for fantasy writers at all stages in their writing journey. Our community centers primarily around the forums for discussion of the fantasy writing we all enjoy, our Library for members to share their fiction, member-generated writing resources, and our Discord server for faster paced discussion of writing (and of life in general). If you enjoy writing fantasy, please consider making us an online home!

Forum Update: Feedback Needed
Members, With the end of the year approaching, the staff members and I have been discussing making some changes regarding the forum and the Discord server. The forum has existed for almost four years now, and from the start we've seen a lot of dips and spikes in activity, mostly due to the fact that forums just aren't as popular as they used to be.

Guides to Worldsmyths Suggestions Needed
Something I have been slowly working on is creating a new set of guides for the Worldsmyths forum, since we've been on it since December and there are some things I know that people don't know how to do - these guides would be for finding certain things on the forum, pointing out specific features (like the clubs), and figuring out how to do certain things, like using a spoiler code in a post or quoting a specific piece of text from someone's response. But, I want your help! I want to make sure
