Reconnect with the energy, spark, and joy that compelled you to tell this story in the first place — and discover the strategies to move your manuscript toward publication.

You needed to tell this story. There was heat in it—urgency and the conviction that you have something important to say. But somewhere in the months or years of drafting and revising, that heat got harder to find. Now, sitting down with the manuscript feels like a chore, and the work that used to excite you feels like pulling teeth.

This is one of the most common and least talked-about challenges in long-form writing: not a craft problem, but a relationship problem. When revision starts to feel like spinning your wheels rather than making meaningful progress, resistance builds. Once that resistance takes hold, the deep, generative work a draft needs to evolve becomes nearly impossible.

This seminar will change that. We’ll explore how to reconnect with the heat that compelled you to write this story, how to treat revision like play again, and how to experiment with your material in fresh and exciting ways. You’ll leave the seminar with a renewed relationship to your manuscript and a concrete plan for what comes next.

Not sure if you need an editor, or which kind? In this free, practical session, you’ll meet Katie Bannon, a developmental editor with 15 years of experience. She’ll demystify the editing process, covering when an editor is most helpful, how to choose the right one, what different editors do, and what editing typically costs.

The natural world can anchor your writing in vivid, sensory detail and do powerful thematic work. But too often, nature writing falls into clichés or stays surface-level. In this webinar, you’ll learn five craft techniques for writing the natural world in ways that feel fresh, specific, and essential to your story. Whether you’re writing fiction, memoir, or essays, nature isn’t just backdrop—it’s character, metaphor, and emotional landscape. Learn how to make every detail count.

This live webinar is perfect for writers working in any genre who want to deepen their sense of place and use the natural world to do more than decorate the page.

All registrants will receive a recording.
