📚New Class: 6-Week Generative Book Writing
Write your book with me for $41/per hour (yes, seriously!)
Greetings all!
I’m dropping a quick note to share the deets on my brand new publishing boot camp starting March 4th. Join me for a six-week virtual intensive designed to help you write that damn book already.
Each week, you’ll submit new writing and then receive feedback from peers (and me!). You’ll also learn how to apply what you wrote to your book proposal and pitch your book to agents.
Space is limited. This is the only time I’ll teach this book-writing intensive this year. Come hang!
