Step into the Circle of Possibility

The Writer's Circle

A Monthly On-going Group Program for Writing and Publishing

For writers who seek encouragement, guidance, and community on the path to successfully achieving writing goals.

Writing is a solitary experience and it's easy to get discouraged and lose sight of your goal and how much progress you've made. Many writers find that committing to a once a month meeting is a way to maintain a rhythm and stay inspired. Think of the Writers Circle as stepping into your monthly room of possibility - where you recommit, regain your confidence, and reset your creative vibe to keep you going. It's like a monthly battery recharge to inspire and encourage you to stay on track with your writing aims.

One of the biggest struggles of many writers is staying connected to their writing aims and project. You may feel called to write, but even though you know how to write, writing a book requires a different set of tools to get you smoothly and successfully to completion. The Writer's Circle is designed to give you a place to meet live in a group once a month to write, share your progress, and learn more about writing.

Sessions will be designed to touch on different themes from the actual writing process to info about publishing an also give you some writing time to move forward with your ideas. One of the biggest challenges of being a writer is working in isolation. Doubts and uncertainty can creep in.
         
          In the Writers Circle we'll work together each month to help you take proactive steps to writing and drafting, structuring, editing, building a platform, learning about publishing, and staying on the path to completion of your project. This program is designed to support you, as a writer, help build your creative self-confidence, and encourage and inspire you to work your way through to the publication of your book. The Writers Circle Plus + option includes a one on one 25 minute monthly session with Debra Moffitt to discuss your work and writing.


        Aims of this monthly program:

  • To support you to write your book and take empowered steps to get it published.  
  • Working together in a small group amplifies your creativity and sense of possibility.
  • Learn inspired writing techniques that will help you tap into your highest creative potential in monthly live meetings facilitated by award-winning author, Debra Moffitt. And expect some pop-up sessions with special guest authors, industry professionals, and agents. (Sessions will be recorded if you can't make the live ones.)
  • To help writers work through the immense challenges of writing a book including process, structure, and proactive steps to publishing.                                                                  
  • Learn ways to work from an inner place of guidance for the highest and most original work and inspiration.

                       How it works:


- We meet in virtual live workshops using Zoom once every month in a 90 minute session to work in depth on a topic and help you to take the next steps in your writing. Sessions will generally be divided into 25 minutes of "Just Write!" where you'll be guided into your writing space with mediation and visualization. A portion of the time will be on discussion and Q&A, and a portion will be dedicated to the theme of the month. Themes might be flow, confidence, focus, setting intentions, staying on track, moving forward with ease and grace, intuition, working with dreams and symbols, intuitive editing, and more.

- You'll have access to regular guest authors, publishing industry professionals, and agents who will share their experiences and answer your questions.

- Writers Circle Plus members will receive a 25 minute one-on-one monthly session with award-winning author, Debra Moffitt, to talk about your progress and help you to move forward with your writing each month.

- You'll be connected to a community of fellow writers who you may wish to share your work with for feedback and mutual support.

- You'll receive a regular newsletter about writing with tips and information around the themes of the month.

- You'll learn about all aspects of writing from the creative drafting process to the writer's mindset, and coping with rejection and periods where the muse may seem to have abandoned you.

- We'll also work with intuitive aspects of writing that have been the source of inspiration for so many writers. These include working with dreams, inner visions, and intuitive insights.

- You'll be welcome to attend Debra Moffitt's "Just Write!" online virtual workshops as a free bonus (scheduled periodically) and receive discounts to retreats and workshops.

We meet in an online classroom via an easy link from the location you choose. Wifi or Internet access is required. You will be visible to fellow authors.
