Fall Fresh Start! Move Past Obstacles to Achieve Your Writing Goals

a two-hour workshop for writers of all levels

Want to commit to your writing but find it hard to stick to a routine? Are you sabotaged by self-doubt? Do you want to feel more confident in your writing process?

Carol Goodman, author of twenty-seven novels and two-time winner of the Mary Higgins Clark Award, will share methods she’s developed over twenty-five years of writing to counteract the most common obstacles to writing. This workshop will help writers at every stage and phase. Come prepared to write!
