​Life is Too Short to Neglect Your Writing


​Having unstarted, unfinished, or unpolished manuscripts floating around only makes you feel stressed out and unfulfilled. Writers shouldn't have to feel uncreative, uninspired, and unproductive. It's time to UN-DO all of that.

You've worked too hard to get where you are today to not reignite your momentum. Keep learning. Focus your time. Write a better book. Come to Lake Junaluska, NC the week of July 10-16, 2023. ​Fulfill your dreams. 
​

Get relaxed. Feel inspired. Be creative.
​

Your Writing Dreams Are Important

I understand how it feels to put your writing on the back burner. I spent 10 years of my life neglecting my writing. Nobody should have to experience a decade-long writer's block. Like you, I was frustrated by not having enough support. I felt uninspired and unfulfilled. Like so many others, finding the time to write can be difficult. I care about your writing dreams. Let's do this together.

Mandy, Tennessee

I have a much better grasp of what I need to do to create a better, more enjoyable novel now. The faculty helped me understand that I needed to eliminate a character and what I needed for my first page. I love coming!
