Creative Writing

“The presenter was insightful, personal, and so sharp, it was a joy to listen to her answer questions.”

“The advice I received on working through self-criticism has already helped me navigate through that critical part of me. Also, being around other writers helped me acknowledge the universal nature of these kinds of challenges. That I’m not the only one going through these.”

“The openness of everyone involved revealed that while certain blocks are universal, how we overcome them is what defines us as writers. I also picked up some clever and practical ‘hacks’ that can jump-start creativity and help us get out of our own way.”

“I learned that everyone experiences the writing process in different ways and that the things that block us are infinite, but that there are ways to navigate through them. I learned that motivation and inspiration don’t appear out of the blue, but you can make them happen; I learned ways to do this.”

“As a first-timer, for me the workshop was insanely beneficial for my writing skills.
I strongly believe it helped me overcome obstacles, like not being able to let go and continue writing.”

Dimitrios, August 24, 2024

“I had not found a workshop attuned to me (or that I thought worked for me) until this one. I had two ‘aha’ moments in the workshop: one was that tinkering with characters or plots is like tinkering with ideas and concepts. The other insight is that in order to be revised, the ideas need to be written.”

“It’s good to go beyond (or around) an emotional response to why there’s a ‘block’, and to be prepared to be more systematic about just writing, instead.”

Emma, August 24, 2024

“The presenter demystified the writing process, making it feel approachable and natural. I had several ‘aha’ moments during the session, including a realization that writing isn’t just a wish for me—it’s a need.”
