We’re calling out the myth of the solitary writer. No book, none of your favorite works, has been created in isolation. Each work is a product of a community around its author, and often, the world has found that work because it had such a community. Paged is first and foremost a field of writerly community. We are designing a safe space in which writers can find each other, talk with one another, push each other forward. Within Paged, you’ll discover an easy and intuitive structure by which to meet your peers, your writing groups, your trusted critique partners, even your diverse and robust audience of beta readers. Always writers have struggled with the question of when their work is “ready,” when and if they’re making progress as writers—community is how we get the answer.
If we are to measure the success of the support system for writers by how many books languish on hard drives and in filing cabinets—we must measure that system as a tragedy. Writer after writer tells the same story: I love writing, but so much of this journey is a collection of frustrations and mysteries seemingly out of my control. The result is that innumerable works of written art have evaporated, never meeting their audience or transforming their reader. Innumerable writers have remained anonymous not because they failed at writing, but because the world did not know how to find them. A tragedy, and one that moved us to put Paged into the world.
Paged is a tool that steps up and meets every individual where they are on the journey of being a writer. Whether you’ve just written your first favorite sentence, or you have six books with one of the Big Five—Paged is designed to serve you on your journey to create something meaningful and to share it with the world.
