Application purpose. WriterFeed (WF) is a free online community for writers. The application helps members publish creative writing, share artwork, participate in forums, give and receive feedback, join writing activities, and connect with other writers in a moderated, family-friendly environment.

You can browse much of the site without signing in. Creating an account is required to publish work, post in forums, and use member-only features.
Sign in with Google
WF offers optional Sign in with Google as a convenience for account registration and sign-in. You may also create an account or sign in with a WF username and password at any time.
How WF uses Google user data
If you choose Sign in with Google, WF requests only the Google account information needed to authenticate you and create or link your WF account:
- Your Google account ID (a unique identifier from Google)
- Your name, when Google provides it
- Your email address, which must be verified by Google
WF uses this information only to:
- Sign you in to an existing WF account linked to your Google account
- Link Google Sign-In to an existing WF account when the verified email address matches
- Create a new WF account when you are a new user (you choose your username before registration completes)
- Recognize your Google account on future sign-ins
WF does not request access to your Google Drive, Gmail, contacts, calendar, photos, or other Google services. We do not sell Google account information, use it for advertising, or post to Google on your behalf. Information from an in-progress sign-in is held temporarily (for about 15 minutes) while registration completes. Linked Google account data is kept while your WF account remains linked to Google Sign-In.
When you use Google Sign-In, Google's own terms and privacy policy apply to your interaction with Google. Learn more at Google's Privacy Policy.
