Gift Yourself a Writing Weekend ... or Two!
Weekend bootcamps coming up!
Have you been feeling some kind of way about writing? The creative process? Not quite making the progress you’d intended?
We get it. Life, kids, parents, dogs, the news, the whole effing world gets in the way. Oh and then there’s the whole, Am I even a writer? Is this even any good? whispered from somewhere just over your shoulder. And the 10,000 ideas vying for your attention, only to disappear when you have time to start one.
Give yourself the gift of a weekend (or two!) dedicated to your writing—to reigniting your joy, to untangling from the emotional weeds.
In honor of making space for ourselves and our creative process and in acknowledgment of how hard that can be, we’re turning the early-bird discount into a … late-bird discount? A sometimes-last-minute-is-the-right-minute discount? A feeling-whackadoodle-ready-for-delight discount? Whatever we call it, each of these weekend bootcamps is just $225 while there are “seats” left.
Or get both for $400!

The Bootcamps
— Why Not This? When Revision is Play w/Holly
Friday 6/27, 4-6 pm PDT / 7-9 pm EDT, Saturday & Sunday 6/28 & 6/29 12-2pm PDT / 3-5 pm EDT ($275 $225)
Feeling stuck in a rut? Blank page messing with you? Would you love to create a piece that sounds or feels or looks like nothing you’ve ever written before? To remember how wildly fun the energy of creating something new can be? Here’s an answer that can work wonders: Play!
Yep, let loose. Have fun. Experiment. Open doors you didn’t even know were there! Why Not This? will be a weekend of cavorting with form and structure, frolicking with genre and style, and taking your work along new paths. Come discover how play can lead to seriously good work.
— No, You Are Not a Mad Genius: Mental Wellbeing for Creative Folx w/Marya
Friday 7/18, 4-6 pm PDT / 7-9 pm EDT, Saturday & Sunday 7/19 & 6/20 12-2pm PDT / 3-5 pm EDT ($275 $225)
Are you a creative person? A curious person? (Are you reading this? Ok then.) If you write, make art, or do creative work of any kind, if you ever have or intend to down the road, if you’ve got one single creative bone in your body, this weekend intensive is for you.
The creative process has a lot of highs and lows by its very nature. And while we’re not going to drop a nickel in me today on the matter of why creative people tend to lean a little wackadoodle in their own weird ways, suffice to say we do. Between the innately intensive experience of creative practice and the slightly wackadoodle tendencies of those who want to do it, the possibility exists - I’m just saying - that we might get ourselves good and tangled in the emotional weeds and/or caught up in some damn funk or fit about our work from time to time.
Why not double your gift to yourself?
This bundle nets you $75 off the full price of each bootcamp, so a $150 saving.
