Finding the Time To Write (Andi Cumbo)

This seminar will meet in person at WriterHouse for one session on Saturday, June 7  from 10:00 AM-12:00 PM. 

Description:

Does your time for writing always seem to be a low priority? Or something you procrastinate?  In this three-hour seminar we will discuss tried and true methods to help you get to the page regularly and in a manner that fits with your life as it is now. We’ll talk about mindset, do exercises, and even make plans to help you put your words on the page sustainably and authentically. No prescriptive, one-size-fits-all advice here. Just practical considerations to help you find and keep the time for your creative work.
