Stuck + not writing? Come to this live online workshop and write! ❤️


Thursday, Oct. 2, 2025

Hi Friend,

Many writers think they need to brute force themselves through their writer's block.


Or they beat themselves up about it.


Or they procrastinate far away from the blank page.


And that may make them really grouchy -- I know it does me.


There's one thing I've learned over the 25+ years of fiction writing, and that is this:


If I'm not working on my book, I am so so grouchy.


Why?


Because what makes me happiest is to write stories.


So for over 30 years (yes, I spent over 10 years wanting to write fiction and not doing so), I've collected lots of tools to getting back to my writing.


And now I'll share a few of the best with you. (Best = fun, easy, results-oriented)


What if you could overcome your writer's block and get back to your writing?


What if you could do that this Saturday?


I'm excited to offer my presentation "Ignite Your Creativity: Overcoming Writer's Block" based on my book "Overcome Writer's Block: 10 Writing Sparks to Jumpstart Your Creativity" to the National League of American Pen Women.


When: Saturday, Oct. 4, 10:30am MT/9:30am PT (Time zone converter)

In this interactive workshop, I'll guide you through proven techniques:


  • to break through creative barriers

  • help you reignite your passion for writing

  • and develop sustainable practices that keep inspiration flowing.


You'll leave with practical tools you can immediately apply to your current writing projects.

Beth
