I want to invite you to start living creatively.

 

To start writing, possibly for the first time in years.

Because we all know that writing never leaves you. It lives within you, quietly waiting for you to pick up where you left off.

 

 

 

I’m giving you permission to dream big and flex your creative muscles.

 

To float ideas that have been percolating for a while now, to generate new ones and to toss out your preconceived notion of what a ‘writer’ looks like.

Because writers are everywhere. Tapping on keyboards, writing on scraps of paper, creating social media captions, crafting elaborate text exchanges with friends, typing up emails to family.

 

 

Writers are folks like you and me.

 

Writers who have been told, by ourselves or otherwise, that we’ve not got what it takes. That our ideas are out-dated, our grammar too clumsy and our potential non-existent. That’s me. That’s you.

We’re the writers who defy the negative talk and make stuff happen anyway.

Writing together we’ll build a routine. A habit that prepares you to produce your best work.

This isn’t necessarily about making money. It’s about making space. A space for you to fulfill the creative urge that never gets to rise to the surface.

 

Creativity is a basic need for you and to deny yourself that craving is a tragedy. Here’s what you need to do…

 

You can make space for creativity and I implore you to do so, with or without my support.

But if you need someone to hold your hand, cheer you on, to remind you why you started… I’m here. You’ll be part of a group of creative folks who know that the need to write runs in our blood.

A team of writers who dare to dream.

What past members have to say….

 

“IWR has helped me in so many more ways than just writing.

“It gives stability for me to know I can write twice a week without pressure in my daily to-do list. It’s given me confidence in my ability as a writer and I love having the support and knowledge of all different types of strong, creative women behind me along the way”

“I started in January bogged down in imposter syndrome and I’m ending it with almost 20,000 words of a memoir, 6 chapters of a short story collection, my own poetry collection in the works and being in several magazine publications.”

– Rochelle

“IWR is an amazing program.

“I looked forward to every call, not only to write, but to connect with many other like-minded souls.

“The writing help from Fiona was filled with lots of expert knowledge that helped me create my blog and pitch to magazines too.

– Hannah

“I can’t recommend IWR enough!

“Over the sessions of IWR I wrote content for my business, journaled, and dipped my toe into writing a memoir (which I never thought I would have an interesting story to tell, but I do). When I am feeling uninspired to write I can use one of the well-thought-out prompts Fiona provides (there are new ones every week).

“Thank you Fiona for creating such a safe and encouraging space to write and be creative and to just be yourself!”

– Erin

What to expect

 

👉🏻 Inspiring welcome session – a guided writing workshop to figure out how you feel about writing and what you want to achieve from the program (simply ‘writing every week’ is a perfectly good goal!).

 

👉🏻 Twice weekly virtual writing sessions – Every Wednesday night 19:00 – 20:00 and Friday morning 07:00 – 08:00.

 

👉🏻 Writers circle – Space to share at the end of each writing session.

👉🏻 Additional writing prompts and exercises – perfect for when inspiration runs dry or if your goal is simply to build a regular writing habit.

 

👉🏻 Weekly emails – Where I shout out member wins and share additional resources.

 

👉🏻 Thought-provoking conversations – I like to pull tarot/oracle cards at the end of each writing session to get you thinking.

 

Plus…

 

⭐️ Three structured writing workshops:

  • Poetry for People Who Are Scared of Writing Poetry
  • Everything I Know About Getting a Book Deal
  • Therapeutic Journaling for Good and Bad Days

Why I created this program

 

For a decade I worked 50+ hour weeks in various jobs I hated. I thought a career in creativity was pipe dream. A lost cause. A total impossibility.

I thought to become a writer I’d have to go back to university or get an unpaid internship to get my foot in the door.

But hard work and consistent writing can change everything.

This course is a way for me to pass on what I’ve learned to the eager yet disheartened writers of the world. You deserve to bring your creation to life!

I’m not gonna upload my CV for ya, but here are the highlights:

  • I’ve written for major publications including Refinery29, Grazia, Metro and Reader’s Digest
  • I’ve published two books and am currently working on my third
  • I love creative writing
  • I have no formal qualifications in writing (which is kind of cool when you think about it)

Where do I enter the discount code?

It’s simple! Read this.

What if I can’t attend the live sessions?

The real work gets done during our writing sessions. If you can’t attend them, you won’t get the most out of the course. You don’t need to attend them all, just as many as possible to maximise the amount of writing you get done!

I'm an amateur writer, can I join?

This is designed for writers of ALL abilities, so yes! You are so welcome here!

Do I have to attend every session?

Nope, it’s up to you how much you show up. I’d recommend you attend at least 75% to see some progress.

How much time will I need to invest in the course?

At least one hour per week, but once you get started writing you’ll end up wanting to do more!

Will this course run again?

I’ll run Inspire Write Repeat again in Autumn 2024.

Do I need to show my face on Zoom?

Nope! During the weekly writing sessions we all have our cameras and audio off. We just show up live for the accountabilty factor and team spirit. During the Q&A call you can talk to be on camera, or just audio, or just text if you prefer.

I don't have a writing project in mind, should I still join?

If you’ve got a project in mind, great. I you don’t, that’s totally fine. This course is about training yourself to have a regular writing habit. You can use each session to work on personal writing like journaling, or I can send you some creative writing prompts to get your juices flowing every week. Even if you’re not working towards a specific goal, getting words on the page is great for honing your craft.

A LIL NOTE FROM ME: This is a considered purchase and involves both time on your part to get the best results. If you can’t afford this course, please don’t buy it.
