Tuesday, Sept. 23, 2025

Hi Friend,

This week, I'm deep in our new creative entrepreneur apprenticeship class and am a bit shook up from 2 mild earthquakes in one day. Yes, mild! That's the San Francisco Bay Area for you.


But of course, I’d never forget to email you.


After all emailing you is all about sharing resources I believe can really support you as an author.


  • This email is specifically for published or soon to be published romance authors and is a direct referral from me because I believe in the program and the teacher.

Since I also write romance, inside some of my speculative fiction, I thought maybe some of you would too.


But if you don't think of yourself as a romance author, then you can skip the rest of this email.


You deserve only the best support for your creative writing life, and I love sharing resources that help you do that!


ā¤ļø

Calling all romance authors ready to transform your storytelling magic!


As a novelist and writing coach who believes in the power of community and craft mastery, I'm thrilled to share Sue Brown-Moore's Story Sorcery Society.


This isn't just another writing group --- it's your creative cauldron for breakthrough moments, personalized coaching, and connection with fellow published authors who understand your journey.


If you're navigating that challenging "muddy middle" of your career, Sue's blend of practical exercises and supportive accountability might be exactly the enchantment your writing practice needs.


Ready to conjure your next-level success?


Go here https://www.suebrownmoore.com/the-story-sorcery-society/ for all the amazing details.


Important: There is an application process. So to get credit, share my name and emailĀ in the final section of the application. (Beth Barany, beth@bethbarany.com).


Note also that this is a closed group with an application process, soĀ not all people who apply will be invited to join.


Sue wants to make sure the group is a fit for you and that you’re a fit for the group.


What some of her students say:


Sue pushes me toĀ write better and better novels. She’s a fantastic editor. I don’t know how long it would’ve taken me to sharpen up my game without her, and I really don’t want to speculate on that either. Thank you, Sue!— JS Harker, Urban Fantasy Romance writer


First, I want to say you areĀ a phenomenal speaker and teacher. I watched your "Liar, Liar, Plot on Fire: A 5-question story diagnosis technique" webinar back in March and loved it. So of course I'm excited by the prospect of even more of your content. ā€”Coryanne Hicks Ghostwriter/fiction writer


Applications due: Fri, Sept. 26.

Happy Writing!



Best,

Beth


PS. Friday, I'll send the weekly news with updates about the podcast and the blog and upcoming writerly events and trainings.
