The Yin and Yang of a Writer's Life

The Yin and Yang of a Writer's Life

This is an intensive writing workshop that deals with the yin and yang of a writer’s life—the intuitive, interior creative side and the logical, external marketing side. We will cover both the WHY-TO and the HOW-TO of our craft, since it is the fusion
of both that leads to creative combustion and commercial success.

This interactive workshop will teach writers how to:

• Find the inspiration to get those words out of your brain and on to the page.
• Make the proper time and space to support your work
• sharpen your focus, voice, and pitch
• excite others about your creative project
• create a winning book proposal
