a creative writing community offering workshops, courses, and retreats

writing for all seasons

Hello, we’re Alice Kinsella and Daniel Wade, writers, couple, and founders of All Weather Words.

Between us we have eight books and two decades of experience teaching creative writing.

Writing for us has always been more than a job, it’s a place to express creativity, to explore ideas, to find comfort in difficult times. With the rise of AI and points outside general chaos, we think it’s more important than ever to share what we’ve learned about how to incorporate a writing practice into your life.

We founded All Weather Words because we felt the need for a writing community that is accessible and open to all, and that puts the practice above the goals. Yes, we’ll offer workshops and courses that will help you improve your writing, but we hope to do much more than that. We want people to grow in confidence, to make friends, and to feel a part of something with their writing.

We offer a free newsletter and free co-writing sessions via our Substack, and share regular tips and updates on Instagram.

We host small group workshops with a focus on accountability, community, and personalized feedback

Because writing isn't just about writing a book. It's about how we see the world and ourselves. A fulfilling creative practice can change your life, and that should be accessible to all.
