Red Ink: An Anti-Capitalist Romance Writers' Meetup
Love stories can be revolutionary! Join a community of writers crafting romance beyond capitalist constraints. Whether you're weaving tales of worker solidarity, reimagining love outside the profit motive, or just looking for a space to write with like-minded comrades, this group is for you.
No political experience necessary—we don’t care if you’re a communist, socialist, anarchist, or just frustrated with the same old tropes. We want a space to spitball ideas: What if our prince had more internal resources than assets? What if our heroine relied on problem-solving and connection rather than beauty? If you’ve searched for these stories and come up empty, then, as Toni Morrison said:
“If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.”
Let’s build that book together. Expect critique and feedback, collaborative writing sessions, and quiet solo writing time. All experience levels welcome—bring your passion for storytelling and a desire to challenge the status quo!
