Life at The Writer

We make shift happen

We’re a team of 30-odd people working together to find the words that shift the world. That’s our purpose. And while we’re a motley crew, it’s one goal we all have in common, whether we’re a few feet or a whole ocean apart.

The rest of the time, you might find us swapping book recs (okay, Netflix recs), helping out at literacy charities and sending a few too many gifs in our emails.

What we do (when we’re not working)

 

1

Celebrate

Our Summer and Winter Days Out have had us whale watching, dragon boat racing, bread making, popsicle crafting and prosecco popping.

2

Give back

We use our annual volunteer days to promote literacy and education in our two hometowns.

3

Get together

Our monthly gatherings, events, and (often) crafts take the mandatory out of fun.

Bond

We all share the Writer qualities: love language, care about quality, mind the numbers, feed curiosity, and grow together.
