5 Online Classes to Choose From:

 

Learn to Love the Writing Process

Writing from the Subconscious

Tuesday Afternoons, 12 Sessions
Noon- 2:30 PM PDT starting Sept 12, 2023

 

Writing Open the Mind Intensive

Wouldn’t you love to have FUN with writing?

 

For years I’ve been developing and refining this method of writing without all the struggle. It’s called Learn to Love the Writing Process: Writing from the Subconscious, and I know it works. People tell me over and over again. It’s a method to jump right in, write like crazy, and break down all the walls that keep your writing tame!

Each week you will get:

  • A new mind-opening freewrite to we will all do together live: open to the unknown!
  • A chance (if you want) to read that new work aloud to others using our special form of nourishing feedback that doesn’t trigger the fear reflex.
  • Q & A with Andy, as well as discussion with other students.

PLUS:

  • A copy of Andy’s Book: Writing Open the Mind
  • Audio mp3 recordings of each week’s writing exercise sent to you by email for you to try again on your own

12 weeks: $520

Register now to hold your spot and learn this method that keeps you excited to write.
