Discover your why session
DID you know You HAVE a theme YOU CIRCLE in yourwriting?
It’s Called Your ‘Why’
Your ‘Why’ is a fundamental part of your creativity and the root internal attraction for the themes your stories explore. That theme is part of why we write - to work out the things we circle and want to figure out.
Knowing your ‘Why’ can completely change not just your creative process, but your ability to position your book, create its cover, and talk about your story when you are ready to market it!

Discover Your ‘Why’ WITH THIS FREE Worksheet
three simple questions WILL help YOU uncover the deeper themes beneath your writing!
Most writers never even realize they possess a ‘Why’ that drives their writing.
But when you understand you do and what is driving it (hint, it will be in your themes), you can unlock your creativity in a wonderful way!
And once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
Here’s a few examples to show you how three well-known authors circle central themes in their writing.
J.K. Rowling - What makes someone good or evil?
George R.R. Martin - What is the cost of power?
Stephen King - What happens when ordinary life meets extraordinary horror?
In a Discover Your Why Session, we’ll spend 60 minutes together exploring what theme keeps pulling you back to the page.
I use guided questions to help you go deeper into what is driving you there and help bring your ‘Why’ into your awareness. It’s terribly exciting and empowering for writers to open this inner door!
The benefits of knowing your ‘Why’ are massive. You will:
Know what to hang onto and what to let go in your revisions.
How to frame your blurbs, comps, and pitches to agents.
Understand how your Why threads through everything you write.
Confidence to talk about your book and your writing with0ut waffling
Includes:
A live 60 minute session with me (via Google Meet - recording is available if you want to keep the session)
