Write Your Year: Reflect, Set Intentions, and Chart a Course for Your Writing Life

Reflect, set intentions, and chart an (intuitive & strategic) course for your writing life using the step-by-step process outlined in the Write Your Year Workbook.

As you complete each of the 10 worksheets inside you'll feel:
  • Inspired by what you've already accomplished,
  • Clear on what you want to achieve moving forward based on your personal goals (not FOMO),
  • Confident that you have the tools and the plan to: Make. It. Happen!

​You can keep feeling scattered or obligated to do *all the things.*

OR

You can take some time for yourself and, with some guidance, finally get super clear on how you want your writing life to look and what concrete steps you can take in the next 12 months to get you closer to that life.
I NEED THE WRITE YOUR YEAR WORKBOOK!

​Writer, You Need a Website: 5 Days to Your First Author Website

Your step-by-step guide to building your first author website quickly and painlessly. In this self-guided course, you'll learn the strategies behind everything I teach, and, more importantly, you'll have a meticulous, step-by-step project plan to implement. You'll also get access to Q&A Replays and a Resources Library that will help you develop your website further over time. 

You'll finally feel excited and motivated to complete this critical project that you've put off for too long. The end result: Your FIRST Author Website AND the confidence to share that new URL far and wide.

BONUS: On January 13, 2023 I'm hosting a Live Q&A for You Need a Website students that includes a replay.

FOR A LIMITED TIME: Through November 30, 2023, take advantage of the 3 month payment plan option for this course.
