Welcome to
The Storymakers Club

-
We're a bunch of brilliant weirdos who love books.
Just. Like. You.

There you are!
We've saved you a seat.

Welcome to The Storymakers Club!
A cozy online home for the wild-hearted makers of books.

Writing, illustrating, publishing.
It can feel like a lonely road sometimes.
You’re pouring your heart into stories, wrestling with plot holes, layering colours into characters, doubting your ideas, rewriting… And most of the time? You’re doing it all alone.


We created this space to bring bookmakers together.

Picture book authors, illustrators, self-publishers, editors, dreamers and doers. This is a place to meet kindred spirits, cheer each other on, and build momentum in community.

Whether you’re working on your first dummy or your tenth title, whether you love feedback or prefer to quietly observe:
you belong here.

That’s where
The Storymakers Club
comes in!

Build a community!

We’re creating a warm, inspiring space where picture book makers don’t have to go it alone.
A community rooted in kindness, creativity, and real connection, where cheerleading is second nature and everyone has something to bring to the table. Whether you’re here to grow, share, support or simply feel seen; you belong.

What we do at
The StoryMakers Club

Workshops & Challenges

Inside the Club, you’ll find gentle creative nudges and low-pressure prompts to help you grow. From themed “Grow With Me” challenges to occasional live workshops. Whether you’re stuck in a rut or just looking for a playful push, there’s always something to spark your process (or shake up your comfort zone just enough). No pressure, just possibility.

Social Meetups

Sometimes, the best stories start over coffee or in a messy sketch session with friends.

In the Club, we encourage spontaneous co-working, live drawing dates, and connecting around shared goals. Whether it’s a casual video session, a group trip to a book fair, or a cozy check-in thread before a deadline. For those who want it, the community extends beyond the screen.

Creating is better together.
That’s what we are here for.
