Start Writing Now! October 12

Maybe there’s a story you’ve been meaning to write for years: a memory, a family story, or a novel idea you keep coming back to. Or maybe you just have a feeling there’s something in you that wants to be written.

Either way, getting started is the hard part. You sit down, and the voice that says “this isn’t good enough” shows up before the first sentence does.

In this free one-hour Start Writing Now webinar, you’ll learn two simple techniques that quiet that voice and get words on the page. One is the Self-Acknowledgment Hug, a short exercise that settles the part of you that wants to judge and plan. The other is the Word of the Day cluster, a quick way to turn a single word into a flow of memories, images and ideas. Then you’ll write.

You’ll leave with:

• Writing of your own, started during the session
• A 10-minute way to begin anytime you feel stuck, which you can use at home
• A way past the inner critic that keeps you from starting
• A starting point for a memory, a family story, a character or an idea, whether it’s the one you came with or one that surprises you

No experience needed. Bring a notebook and a pen.

Please note: The meeting Zoom link will be emailed to you the day of the webinar.
