Illuminating Your Story

Service Description

Explore what makes your story tick in a small cohort of emerging and established writers. Whether you’re writing memoir or fiction, you'll build a robust foundation using Ignite’s tried-and-tested approach, which includes built-in craft exercises and targeted prompts drawing from sources such as Alan Watt’s The 90-Day Novel, Save the Cat by Jessica Brody, and Writing the Breakout Novel by Donald Maass, among others. By the final session, you’ll have acquired the tools and confidence to launch into your first draft. This program is ideal for writers with an ember of an idea for a book-length project. Come prepared to reimagine everything you think you know about the story you want to tell and learn more about what will drive your book-writing forward. We meet live, weekly on Zoom, for six weeks. At the end of the six weeks, you will have a month to submit up to 2,000 words for review. You may submit the beginning of your work, an excerpt from any part of the story, an outline, or any combination of materials for review. You will receive written comments and questions to help you continue working on your story, within two weeks after your submission is received. You will also receive a discount code toward an optional one-on-one coaching session to further discuss your work. Wednesdays January 08th—February 12th 7-9PM EST/4-6PM PST, Early Bird $299 USD Before December 25th
