The Blooming Book Club vs Written Identity

Wonderful community if you like books

I love reading and being around others talking about reading recommendations and what we learned from the books we have read is great. It's always fun to exchange ideas.

The Blooming Book Club is a space to connect with others who enjoy reading and growing!

Emma has created a lovely corner to grab a book and dive in ~ and she values the opinions of others. She encourages us to read and then share our big takeaways! I value her ability to create a picture of a blooming garden and we are the flowers! Growing day by day! Emma is very patient and doesn't pressure us to keep up with the rigor of an in-person book club meeting. Love this community!

Such an Empowering Space!

I love being part of this community which values authenticity while also holding space for safely exploring. Frameworks encouraging personal exploration without judgement from ourselves (our worst critics) or others. Alli is funny, raw and so profound

The Village Becomes Your Home

What I love about Written Identity, or "the village" as it is lovingly referred to, is that the founder, Alli, genuinely cares about the people in this group. She isn't looking to grow the village just so she can profit; it's about connection, the writing journey, and being able to express your feelings, no matter how ugly they may feel in the moment. The village is also special because of the amount of support. There is no competition here; only love and cheerleading. Anyone looking to rebuild from a place of sadness, depression or complete devastation will find "Written Identity" a safe place to land and start over. Zero Burnout, zero nervous system overloads here. But having said that, you don't HAVE to be sad/mad/burned out to benefit from the village. Literally anyone who just wants to write but might need prompting or reminders or someone to say "your voice is valid" will also love Written Identity. You can come as you are, and we will love the entirety of you in the village :)

Find Community & Yourself

From the very first prompt to now, this community has been such a beneficial place for me to learn, express and grow. Alli has created a wonderful space and environment to share that feels like a real community despite being all virtual. Written Identity has helped me to step into my purpose and stand true in my identity. Alli’s 1:1 mentorship has also helped me tremendously in my pursuit of writing professionally. Her insight and knowledge has been an asset to my growth. If you’re looking for a sense of community and an introspective approach to writing and finding your voice, this is the place to be!
