Other Groups You Might Be interested in:

School for New Writers
Are you tired of getting your hard work trampled with dislikes? Are you a noob who is seriously considering writing a fanfic? Or are you an established author and simply looking for ways to improve your writing? Well, fret no more! If you are a writer in search of guidance and direction, then this is the group for you.

Writers of all skill levels are welcome. You'll find that our lectures are simple and easy to understand for those just starting out. Of course, authors with slightly more experience will also likely find ways to improve upon their own technique, along with resources and services such as story grading and reviews. Activities include monthly contest prompts to hone your skills, and interactive critiques of your OC. Our work is entirely for your benefit.

The Shameless Self-Promotion Bureau
This is a place where we will love and tolerate any self promoters, whoever they might be. In this group, you can post anything pony-related without fear of reprisal. In fact, bashing on people for self promotion here is a good way to get in trouble!

Author Support
We here at Author Support have a common goal, and that goal is to support and help out any author that comes our way. A simple task often made to look complicated by the sheer number of threads and people we have. Often times, though, getting help is as simple as rifling through our threads. More likely than not, you'll find just the thread containing the information or service you need.

Authors Helping Authors
Do you think your story is good, but needs more ratings? Don't know why you are disliked to hell? Can't find any more polite ways to self-promote your story? You're in the right spot.

Members that review the stories in this group will get to ask the people they've reviewed to review their own stories (if they have any) and those people are obligated to review them. That way everybody has a higher chance of getting more readers, ratings if the reviewer likes their fic, or at least an opinion of how people think of one's fic.

Struggling Authors
Welcome to Struggling Authors. Here, if you feel as though your stories are not being recognized for all that they are, if you want to receive constructive criticism and input, if you are an editor and proofreader and are looking for things to preview, or if you just want to hang around and read some pretty great stuff, then join us here at Struggling Authors. Everyone and everything is welcome here.

The Writeoff Association
The Write-off is a timed challenge in which writers create stories to a given prompt. The works are then released anonymously for all to see, followed by judging rounds to allow readers to determine the winners. The event is concluded with the results posted and the authors revealed.

We welcome all authors and readers, whether new or experienced. We want to make this into a community event inclusive of all of Fimfiction, so come one, and come all to the Writeoff Association!

The Ultimate Free Use OC Collection
This group is a dedicated database where anyone can post their own OCs for community use! Have an OC that you would like to see cameo in other stories? Have an OC you can't or won't use in your own stories? Have a passion for making up characters? Need help finding an OC to put in your story? Need help developing an OC for your story? Just like characters that are OCs? You have come to the right place! This group is for authors to find OCs to use and for you to post OCs that you want used. Get it? Got it. Good.

Art For Fanfiction
Welcome to Art for Fanfiction! This is where Writers and Artists of the great brony community combine in a creative environment. Are you an artist, but can't write? A writer looking for cover-art, or illustration? Then this group is perfect for you!

In general, this group serves as a wellspring of inspiration for any artists or writers that need that elusive idea to jumpstart their creativity, break a block, or just feel like being nice. Here, you will also be helping the requester out by realizing their idea. It's a win-win for everyone!

The Admin's Group
A group for aspiring and experienced admins to come share, learn, and give advice to or from other fellow admins.

Collaborations:
The Collab Cage
Welcome, one and all, authors both famed and fresh, and--above all--friends. This group is dedicated to one thing and one thing only--collaborative efforts, often just called 'collabs'. FiMFiction's relationship with collabs is a bit iffy, so it is this group's dedicated goal to provide a place for a plethora of authors to get together and plan combined efforts. We are a writing community after all--so why should we ignore the community part of that? Here we shall create a central location for the planning, discussing, and posting of collaborative efforts.

The Collab Group
Another group dedicated to writing collabs.

Editors/Proofreaders:
Looking For Editors
Do you want to connect with an editor, or find a story to edit? This is the group for you!

Overly Extensive Editors
A group full of colorful-horse literature enthusiasts just like you. We offer editing services, emphasizing a personal relationship between authors and staff members, more so than ‘other’ large editing groups.

Editors-R-Us
Are you a struggling author looking for some basic help with your story? Do you want to help out with other people's stories?
If either of those are the case, then this is the group for you!

The Proofreader Group
A group created by Meeester where you can find proofreaders!

If you have a group you’d like to see advertised here for free, send me a PM! I'm not guaranteeing it'll be included, since I'll want it to fit with the other groups and be reasonably large and active, but I'll think about it.

Here's the original thread of Cosmic Afro's this one was based on!

Since this is for reference, this thread will be locked, but you can comment about it here.
