Establish a committed writing practice.
Grow your creative vision and develop your skills within a supportive group of 6 writers. In this four-month program, everyone is focused on generating text towards creating a first draft!
Developing any first draft can be overwhelming and the tendency is to stop and try to “fix” it before moving on, which means you may never finish! In this program, we’ll get into a creative space to produce fresh writing and learn how and when to be reflective without losing momentum.
Building Your First Draf t includes:
- Seven biweekly group classes ONLINE, using Zoom
- 1-1 writing consultation with Marie each month nurtures your manuscript development
In this program:
- Create fresh writing with the goal of completing a first draft that you love
- Learn how to use timed writing practice to develop your creative vision
- Develop an empowering, sustainable writing practice
- Grow your courage and deepen your writing skills
- Share your words with a supportive audience who is listening for what’s strong in your writing

“To consistently get feedback from people that said, “You can really write!” changed everything for me. You need support like this when you’re so far out of your comfort zone. Marie helped me develop a healthy expectation for writing a book, and the confidence I needed to get it done!”
