This! Dec. 2020 Call #1 
100-Word Critiques + Chat ☕️💗
Hi Friend,

I look forward to reconnecting with you this week for Call #1, the first group of the month.

Thursday, Dec. 3, 2020 at 5:30pm PT / 8:30pm ET

Calls last up to 90 minutes.

Please RSVP. Thanks!

** Please send you 100-150 words for critique by Wednesday night. **




Our Focus: Critiques + Deep-Dive Into Powerful Sentences 

Bring your questions and curiosity ... and bring 1 sentence from your story you want to work with.

Maybe it's a sentence you feel is blah, or one that feels necessary but confusing, or maybe it's a sentence you love but want to make better.

** If you want to participate in the one-sentence deep dive exercise/exploration, please send it to me by Wednesday night. Thanks! **

We'll look at your sentences' underlying assumptions -- cultural, psychological, other? -- and why that's important and how that understand can help you make your sentence more powerful...

... more emotional ...
... more potent ...
... more alluring ...

We're focusing on the smallest unit of writing, so that you can craft stories with emotional impact, stories that your readers can't put down, stories that sell.

We'll also go over your 100-word critiques.

You can send narrative, dialogue, a combo of the two, a book blurb, outline, or even a cover mockup.

Ask:

-- What is useful?
-- What is helpful?
-- What is one thing you can practice this week?


And we'll also:

-- do our Metaphor Check-ins & Good News

-- share next steps and announcements

Bring your questions to the call.


We'll also have a good time connecting!

Thanks!
