Worried you don’t have the time for a workshop this weekend?

Hi Reader, I get it—life is busy. Taking an entire day for a workshop might feel like a big commitment. And, what if it’s boring? Sure, you could scroll on social media all day, hang out with friends, exercise, or clean house. All of those things are important (well, except the scrolling all day one). But none of them further the work you do in the world, or make an impact in people's lives.

Imagine looking back on this workshop with your finished draft in hand, instead of wishing you hadn't spent January 11, 2025, doing the same ol' things you do every weekend.

I learn about the power of the written word from the format they use, their style, phrasing, and the themes they write about. One of the writers I’ve been following for...
Hi Reader, Whenever we roll into October, three things come to my mind: How long can I wait to turn on the heat? (yesterday, it turns out) Did I finish off last year’s Halloween candy yet? (nope, still some Snickers to go!) The season of sun and harvests is coming to an end and the magic of Samhain is near 🌘 (boo and yay!)
