Thanks for your patience!

I've been dealing with some repetitive stress issues and haven't been able to work as much as usual.

In our 2nd call of the month last week:

• We began with metaphor check-ins and a deep-POV writing exercise inspired by Virginia Woolf.

• Then we explored our stories' "soapboxes": theme, strong opinion, and call to action.

• We practiced sharpening our positions so they could guide storytelling, editing, and marketing.

• We also coached Katie through fears about publishing serialized fiction, discussing flexible schedules, reader expectations, behind-the-scenes engagement, and bravery as a practiced habit.

• We ended by naming our next creative steps and celebrating progress together.
