We know the journey from idea to “The End” can feel overwhelming.
That’s why we designed a three-day program, taking you on a journey—from that initial spark to first steps, strong foundations, and finally, bringing your story to life.
Here’s what each day will focus on:
🪔Day 1: Ignite the Journey: From Spark to First Steps. Get your writing journey off to a strong start! Discover how to establish effective routines, set your writing goals, and spark your creativity. We'll also explore mindset, helping you overcome impostor syndrome and write with more joy.
🪄 Day 2: Build Foundations: Plotting & Outlining. Ready to bring structure to your brilliant ideas? This day is all about the essential elements of storytelling, including starting a novel, plotting, outlining, character development, content genre, and crafting compelling themes and world-building.
🌟 Day 3: Bring It to Life: Writing & Finishing the First Draft. Time to get those words on the page and reach The End! Learn essential craft strategies to refine your drafting process, along with practical techniques for dictation, boosting word count, overcoming common writing blocks, building your audience, and—at last—finishing that first draft.
