For creative writers and entrepreneurs



I'm passionate about...




Tuesday, March 17, 2026

Hi Friend,

I'm passionate about learning from my peers and colleagues.


I often ask them:


What is your big dream?


Like, if you could wave a magic wand, what would your life look like?


So your turn...


What is your big dream, if you could wave a magic wand, what would your life look like?


This exploration is why we made this quiz and will be running this bootcamp that starts Friday!


Woot! Woot!


❤️


And also why I helped organize this panel of film professionals yesterday.


We had SO MUCH FUN!

So declare your big dream -- even just to yourself. Or be bold and write me!


I got here today in my writing life -- 12 novels published, a short film in post-production, and lovely creative partnerships because I dared to tell myself my big dream...


... with my heart open wide to the possibilities...


...even though there was no evidence outside of myself that I could be a novelist, a filmmaker, a creative entrepreneur...


Somehow I knew I could still make these things happen...


... with a lot of help from my friends and loved ones and trust in myself and mysteries of the ineffable...


So, take the quiz.


Join the bootcamp.


We start this Friday, March 20, 11am Pacific/2pm Eastern/6pm UK/7pm Paris, France.


🌟 4 days, 2 hours per day


🌟 Fun, practical, useful, and did I say fun?


Your dreams are worth going after.


I believe in you.


❤️

Start Your Writer-Service Business!

Happy Creating!



Best,

Beth


PS. Happy St. Patrick's Day!! ☘️ It's always a special day for me...


❤️ On this day, 27 years ago, my husband proposed to me with this song in the gardens of Château de Chantilly, France.


🦢 There were beautiful white swans all around... and tears in my eyes. Of course, I said, Yes, yes, a thousand times yes!
