8 Weeks To Becoming A (Better) Writer
So you’ve got this dream of being a writer. You’re sitting down with confidence in front of your computer, translating your imagination and perspective into a narrative; casting words onto the screen and watching them turn into people, places, and ideas. You’re at it with a sense of discipline and purpose until the project is done. Before you know it, your work is in the hands of others; not just your friends and family, but new people! The public, other writers, and your ideal audience. And they’re enjoying it, it’s moving them, making them think, and enriching their inner lives. Before the ink is dry, you’re on to the next project!
Sounds great, you’re thinking, but how Conner?
How to find the time? To break through the barriers? To master the tools, the words, the tone? How to find an audience? How to improve in style and voice?
The answer to all of these questions: my interactive coaching package, 8 Weeks To Becoming A (Better) Writer!
The 8 weeks are aimed at taking you from the life you have now into a life where writing is at the center, and the feeling of being a writer emerges fully. Whether you’ve been writing for years and want to improve on all fronts, or you’re new to the practice of writing, you’ll come through this experience with a completely different relationship to your creative projects and yourself as a writer.
