Are you going to delay your fresh start until 2025?
Or are you ready to make some real change and finish strong this year?
Starting October 16, we'll meet every Wednesday for an hour at lunch for ten weeks.
We will:

March 18, 2024: Perfect Project Chunking (Free)
Creating focused, realistic, and useful plans starts with the right goals and tactics. Many writers struggle, however, to break down big writing projects into manageable chunks. The result is often frustration and slow progress.
In this workshop I’ll walk you through the project chunking process. You’ll leave with steps you can take right away to create foolproof 12 week plans.
February 15, 2024: Finding Focus (Free)
Staying focused during your writing sessions can be a huge challenge. Unfortunately, most of the advice you hear is geared toward tactics to use as you write. I think this approach misses the mark because it ignores the causes of poor focus.
In this workshop we’ll take a big-picture perspective and you’ll walk away with concrete strategies for improving your focus.
