WRITE AND PUBLISH YOUR BOOK THE INTUITIVE WAY IN 2020 @ Quaker House
Jan 18 all-day
WRITE AND PUBLISH YOUR BOOK THE INTUITIVE WAY IN 2020 @ Quaker House

January’s a great time to kick-start your writing project — or restart one that you’ve put aside. “Write & Publish Your Book the Intuitive Way” is designed to help you to take bold steps in 2020 to make your writing dreams a reality. We’ll use the “Just Write!” technique with a guided approach to discover details about your book project that will leave you amazed. Writers of all levels love the intuitive and easy approach to discovering what wants to come through them and onto the page.

During this six hour process, you’ll have an opportunity to:

Pull focus and gain clarity about your project;
Get a sense of the right structure for your ideas;
Set a timeline for completion;
Give yourself a chance to reflect on creating a writing discipline that works for you (hint this is not one-size-fits all!);
Take steps to accelerate your writing project with ease and pleasure.

Experience Creative Flow, Define Your Project, & Make a Plan for Completion in 2020

If you don’t have a clear idea about a project, but feel a yearning to explore the possibility of writing a book, starting a blog, or writing a collection of short stories, or organizing your pieces of writing from journals, you’ll be guided through a fun, creative, intuitive process that will help you to see your way more clearly.
