This summer, I asked for your feedback on the writing programs you’d been a part of and whether or not they met your needs. Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to reply–I appreciated all the feedback I got and it was wonderful to learn more about my wonderful Wyrd Words community.
For over a year now, I’ve been planning a program that would let me help more writers take their writing to the next level. I’ve been running a wait list for my 1:1 coaching for several years now and I also realize that the cost of individual coaching prices many dedicated writers out of the market.
So I’m thrilled to introduce you to my newest offering, one that I think will bring you the community, craft, and accountability you need at a price point more people can access:
This year-long workshop for novelists and memoirists provides expert guidance, education, and community-based support so that you can send your work out into the world with confidence.
To do that, we will work together to:
- Establish a writing practice that will give you time, energy, and ease as you plan, draft, revise, and pitch your story.
- Evaluate where your story is and what needs to happen to get it reader-ready.
- Establish the big-picture “Why” of your writing life and your work in progress.
- Determine gaps in your craft knowledge…and fill them!
- Design story scaffolding appropriate for the genre, age category, and “why” of your story.
- Learn to revise deeply so that you can get to “done.”
- Understand the marketplace into which your book will launch.
The workshop combines a supportive, moderated community, live coaching sessions, monthly craft webinars and write-ins, and 52 weeks of course materials (video and written lectures, workbooks, and exercises) that meet you no matter where you are in the writing journey, from establishing your writing practice through planning, drafting, revising, and pitching/publishing your story.
What might your writing life look like if you had access to:
- An online community of like-minded writers
- Live and pre-recorded lessons, lectures, and exercises on all aspects of craft, mindset, and industry
- Three group coaching calls per month for 1:1 feedback and collaborative learning
- Weekly writing sessions
My process is all about self-assessment, planning, and iteration, so no matter where you enter the lifecycle, you’ll find the tools you need to progress and the support required to work with confidence.
If you’ve been struggling to gain the confidence, craft skills, and accountability you need to slay those doubt demons and send your story out into the world, this workshop may be just what you need.
Applications will be open for the month of November and I’ve only got ten slots available, so apply today: julieartz.com/wyrd_words_workshop/
