Helping writers become bestselling authors

Free Gifts for Writers!

Published: December 9, 2023 by ANGELA ACKERMAN

In the writing community, we look out for one another, and with everyone feeling the pinch this year financially, Becca, Mindy, and I wanted to showcase free gifts for writers as our annual Holiday Round-up!

Below is a list of terrific freebies for writers. Enjoy!

Note: for some of these, you need to sign up for an email list.


Crafting Unforgettable Characters (free ebook)

Storytelling superhero K.M. Weiland will help you get started on character-building, steering you to brainstorm the details that really matter.

And this gift contains a bonus – when you sign up to her email list (enter your email in the space provided) to collect this ebook, you also get a bunch of other freebies, too. (I won’t tell you what they are, because surprises are fun.) Enjoy!


Three Mini Masterclasses (free course)

Whether you write novels or screenplays, Lucy Hay of Bang2Write has three terrific foundational courses to help you with your story concept, structure, and characters.

Don’t pass up this chance to get her insight as a screenwriting pro, author, and coach for free!


A Show, Don’t Tell Pro Pack (free PDF)

We’ve put together a PDF containing a sample entry from all of our bestselling thesaurus writing guides, then added helpful tips and links to some of our best show-don’t-tell articles. This PDF is a great idea generator if you get stuck or need inspiration, and gives you an instant idea of how to improve your story using show, don’t tell.

(If you know someone who struggles with description, this will get them thinking differently about what they should describe and why. Brainstorming at its best!)


Manuscript Prep Guide (free PDF)

Are you getting ready to polish and format your manuscript and submit it to editors and agents? Editor and Coach Lisa Poisso has a terrific downloadable guide to ensure your MS looks professional.

Wishing you success on the submission road!


Creating an Unputdownable Book (free mini masterclass)

You want to write a story that engages readers, and Suzy Vadori is the one who can show you how.

Don’t miss Suzy’s free masterclass where she dishes a ton of secrets and strategies that will keep your readers flipping pages.


Elevate Your Storytelling 4-Pack (free brainstorming PDFs)

As an early Stocking Stuffer, Becca and I built four powerful brainstorming tools that each target an important area in fiction: Conflict, Personality, Mood, and Reader Engagement.

These will help you strengthen your storytelling and hack your reader’s brain so they can’t help but be drawn deeper into the story!


Love your fellow writers? Share this post!

These are all items that every writer can benefit from, so once you’ve finished browsing and accessing these terrific freebies, be sure to share this link with your writer friends and groups, along with a note thanking them for being part of your writing journey.

And on that note, THANK YOU for being part of ours!

Angela, Becca & Mindy
