Codex Writers Group
The Codex Writers' Group, also known as Codex, is an online community of active speculative fiction writers. Codex was created in January 2004 and won the 2022 Locus Special Award.[1]
History and membership requirements
Codex was created in January 2004 by Quinn Reid, a member of Orson Scott Card's 2001 Literary Boot Camp.[2] The focus of the group is on writers in the early stages of their careers.[3]
The workshop previously used the phrase 'neo-pro' to identify members, but now describes itself as bringing together "pro-level speculative fiction writers at all stages of their careers who are actively writing".[4] Members are referred to as Codexians.
