Drafts, critique swaps, submission calls. Find writers who trade honest feedback and actually finish things.
Every writer needs the reader who says the second paragraph is your real opening. Tell Peachy you write, and the critique swaps, craft talk, and submission calls surface for you. When you find your readers, a group is one tap away.
Berkeley packs a remarkable number of scenes into a few square miles. Tell Peachy you're looking in Berkeley and posts from people nearby surface for you, whether they're up in the hills, down by the marina, or a few blocks off Shattuck. The rest of the East Bay is one "a little farther" away.
You describe what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and your Feed shows the posts from your friends, mutuals and communities that match.
“Show me writers sharing drafts and asking for feedback.”
“Tell me when a writing group near Berkeley opens to new members.”
“Surface essay and fiction craft talk. I don't bruise from line edits.”
Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats and your communities.
Your Feed starts as everything, newest first. Turn on a paragraph filter, a few plain words like the examples above, place included, and only matching posts show. Turn it off any time.
Your Feed shows posts from your friends, mutuals and communities: all of them, or only the ones that match your paragraph. Public posts from everyone else stay under Public, and your private chats are never part of it.
