Cruise from Idea to Outline

I have something very exciting to announce!

I am leading a workshop for writers that solves overwhelm, intimidation, confusion, frustration, and stuckness.

If you are writing -- or thinking about writing -- a book and you’re:

• At the very beginning stage with a great idea – or several – and don’t know how to sort through and prioritize

• In the drafting stage but have hit a block or don’t know what to do next

• Have a complete, revised, and edited manuscript and are ready to seek agents or publishers

This workshop will get you crystal clear on:

• Which solid and clear central idea encapsulates what you want to say with this project (and which ideas can be saved for later)

• Who will be best served by reading it

• What content best serves – and delights – your readers

• Which structure and organization best serves your work

• What is the best route among the options in the publishing landscape so you can choose what’s best for your unique goals and needs

By the end of this workshop, you will have the foundational pieces to be able to write your book, your book proposal, or query agents and publishers. 

Your creativity and motivation will be IGNITED.

This workshop happens April 28 - May 5, 2024… while crossing the Atlantic on Cunard’s Queen Mary 2 on the Craft & Publishing Voyage with Jane Friedman, Allison K Williams, and Dinty W. Moore.*

So not only will you be making progress on your book, you’ll be taking part in the included craft classes, publishing panels, and personal advice for novelists, memoirists, essayists, and nonfiction writers.

It’s a week-long writing adventure! If you like traveling by ship and spending focused time with your writing, this event is 100% for you.

*The fee for all the Craft & Publishing Voyage events including panels, workshops, and social time is $1175. Our dedicated travel coordinator will help you choose the specially-priced staterooms (starting at $1457) and take advantage of Cunard's discount on the airline of your choice (optional) at the start and/or end of the trip.

If you’re interested, contact me and I’ll send you a link to have a call with me so you can learn what you need to know to make the right decision for you. 

I’ll give you an EXTRA-SPECIAL COUPON CODE for two extra-special bonuses:

• a 30-minute 1:1 coaching session with me during the cruise

• and written feedback and a 30-minute Zoom call on a third revision sent to me within 2 weeks post-cruise.

I love helping writers get clear on their books and achieving their goals, I love traveling by ship, and I’m a huge fan of the cruise leaders. I’d love to do this work and have this experience with you on this trip!

If you’d rather work on dry land, I’ve got you there too! I do the same work with writers who come to me for 1:1 coaching. We go through the same clarity-inducing process and get the same result, only over a 4-week period on terra firma.
