🤝 It's Better Together

The biggest mistake I made in my freelance writing career? Not connecting with more freelancers!

Community makes us better. Stronger. More successful.

I know...because it's my story. I've been a freelance writer since 2006, but I didn't join the community until 2022. Since I've jumped all in on community, my business has grown more in those few years than all the other years combined.

Community unlocks all the benefits of networking:

âś… Friendships (in an often-lonely profession)

âś… Job referrals from a trusted network

âś… Visibility opportunities, such as podcast invites

âś… Learning (So. Much. Learning!)

âś… Inbound leads...and more work

Building alone is possible...but it's better together!

đź‘‹ Meet Liz Heflin, the Inkwell Host

Hi there! I'm Liz Heflin, and I've been a freelance writer, editor, and content marketer since 2006. In the work realm, there's really only two important things to know about me...

âś… I love my job. A lot.

âś… I'm dedicated to helping other freelance writers have as much success as possible.

Freelancing has given so much to my life. The flexibility to set my own schedule, be a present mom, and travel. The creativity and autonomy of being my own boss. Financial freedom.

Running your own business can be overwhelming. (Confusing. Scary. Lonely.)

The Inkwell is a place where we can all support one another, get answers, and lift each other to new entrepreneurial heights.

If you joined today...where could your business be in one year?

📢 What Are the People Saying?

Don't know me? Don't know my resources? Here are some very kind words from writers who've interacted with me.

🤔 Inkwell FAQs

  • The Inkwell is hosted on the Heartbeat community app. They support a desktop and mobile version. All the resources, events, and forum history are in that one venue.

    (Note: paying members do gain access to some off-platform resources, such as Writer’s Residence. In that case, you'll be able to find any relevant discount codes in Heartbeat.)

  • I get it. Life gets busy. But don't worry about it! All live events will be recorded and available to paid members.

  • The Inkwell comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee. So, go ahead. Sign up. Take a look around. If you don't love what you see or it's not for you, email inkwell@lizheflin.com for a full no-questions-asked refund.

  • If you're on a month-to-month plan, cancel any time. (Seriously. You can manage your subscription directly in Heartbeat. If you need assistance, just email inkwell@lizheflin.com.)

    You will retain access to the community until that month’s subscription expires, and then you will not auto-renew. Note: prorated refunds for partial months aren’t possible.

    If you're on an annual membership, refunds are not available, except within that initial 14-day window. If you'd like to cancel at the end of your annual contract, simply manage your subscription in Heartbeat or contact inkwell@lizheflin.com.

  • Yes! If you’re a freelance writer, mentor, or resource creator, there are several ways to collaborate with the community. Get in touch (inkwell@lizheflin.com), and I’ll follow up with more details.

  • Have a question I didn't answer? No worries! Shoot me an email anytime at inkwell@lizheflin.com, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
