Remember that time you got stuck in the middle of your manuscript, wondering how the heck your hero was going to get out of that mess you wrote them into? 😅 Well, that's exactly what this year's Escape the Plot Forest summit is all about, and I'm so excited to be sharing a BRAND NEW workshop, recorded just for this event.

🤔 🕗 ⛰️ Wondering why I'm suddenly giving times in "Mountain time"? I recently moved to Colorado! Hellooo fall leaves and beautiful mountain views! I'll tell you more about my not-so-fun move halfway across the US later. 👋 For now, can't wait to see you in the LIVE CHAT during my session at the 2024 Plot Forest summit! |
