About the Company

Sit Write Here serves aspiring authors who dream of traditional publication by guiding them through the entire journey from unfinished draft to polished, submission-ready novel, without burning out or losing their love of writing.

 

Through a unique blend of mindfulness, rigorous craft instruction, and personalized feedback, we help writers build sustainable writing practices, strengthen their manuscripts, and confidently navigate the publishing industry.

 

Our signature program is called Path to Publication. It offers daily community support, deep editorial guidance, and step-by-step mentorship so writers don’t just finish books, they grow into the kind of authors agents and editors want to work with. At Sit Write Here, we believe great novels are written not through suffering, but through clarity, consistency, and care for the writer behind the work.
