Rise Writers

Rise Writers is a community of emerging and established writers in the process of finding their story, writing a book, or becoming a published author. Founder (and best selling author) Kristen McGuiness founded Rise Writers to give writers a place to find community and support on their path to publishing—regardless of the size of their following.

Kristen enlisted Folk Founded to create a new home online for her community of budding writers. With a goal of shaking it up in the publishing industry, they needed a non-stuffy, non-boring, CREATIVE and inspiring site to support their mission and invite “their people” in.

This was such a fun site to work on (and a beautiful product of investing in other creative folks to make it that much better!)
