There are many writers webrings listed at Ringworld. These are the ones that Anitra and/or StreetWrites have chosen to join, on the criteria of quality, amount of traffic, number and variety of members, and additional member services.
- Poetry Webring Home List StreetWrites' Poetry Webring Page
- A well-established community of poetry, with thousands of sites.
- Writers Realm Home List StreetWrites' Writers Realm Page
- Not just a webring; a cooperative venture to pool links and resources and help each other out.
- Fantasy Ring Home List Anitra's Fantasy Ring Page
- Writing, art, games, and just plain fandom -- but a splendid variety of quality stuff it is.
- Writers Ring Home List Anitra's Writers Ring Page
- New and still growing, but with an excellent membership and excellent future -- the Writers Ring has grown out of the Writers workshop list.
- Female Authors of the Web Home List Anitra's Female Authors Page

- Excellent. (I'm prejudiced: I'm a graduate of Jilla's previous workshop, Writelab.)
- Kalliope
- A poetry workshop modeled after Writelab, but open-ended; it offers exercises on elements of poetry, which you can get feedback on from the group. You also practice by giving feedback to others.
- StreetWrites
- Workshop for homeless and low-income writers.
- Alien Flower
- A web-based poetry workshop.
- Writingchat
- "Happy un-Workshop to You" ... this is "a coffeeshop where writers go to hang out after the workshop."
The following are email-list-only workshops: they have no web pages
- Crewrt: Creativity in Education
-
A small amount of original poetry; good literary criticism of what is submitted.
Basically, an email list of college professors in the literary field. If you enjoy
week-long discussions of metafiction and literary criticism, you'll be ecstatic. If you
don't, you will fall out of your chair in boredom.

- Erotica: Erotic writing workshop
-
Both poetry and prose is submitted and critiqued; market and contest information is also
frequently posted. Most critique is very thorough and professional. There have been a few
upsets on-list, but the membership is generally mature and behaves maturely.
