All Writers: If you are not on the 2026 Writers list, we have not received your pledge. You MUST PLEDGE before requesting membership access to the DW community.


Check your email or DW inbox.
If there is a problem with your pledge, we have attempted to contact you. This private contact will have more information about what you need to do to be a GYWO 2026 Writer.

New to Dreamwidth?
There are some Dreamwidth users who requested membership, but we have not received a completed pledge form for those usernames. Some of these users have a new journal, have not confirmed their email address with Dreamwidth, or don't have any public posts on their journal, which means we have no way to contact you with questions! Please check for your username on the 2026 Writers list. If it's not there, fill out the GYWO 2026 Pledge Form (available at the linked post).

Looking for Access to the Dreamwidth Community?
If you want access to the GYWO Dreamwidth community (the main hub of Get Your Words Out) and have already pledged, please make sure your membership request has been approved or that you have accepted a member invitation sent by a moderator. You have access to the GYWO DW community if your name appears in the Members list (scroll to the bottom of the page and look under “Members”) and/or if you can see the post at this link.

If your name is not on the profile-generated Members list and if you cannot see the linked post, please check to see if you have an invitation to accept or request membership. (You also should have received an email from us with the same links.)

Looking for Access to the Discord Server?
Make sure you updated your server nickname to include your GYWO username. More information about our Discord server and changing your nickname is available here.


Pledging closes end of day on Jan 15, so please act quickly to make sure you have the access you want!
