What is the number one challenge of people, like you, who are creatively inspired or
have a story to tell?
What plagues writers more than writing block or lack of ideas or not having
the time to write?
The biggest problem is Completion: birthing the book, launching the blog
or filling it with content consistently.
It is that time of year when we look across the year to come and consider how to make the most of it. Lots of us put "Finish the book" or "launch the blog" or "write that screenplay" on the list and then it flounders because of excuses this unique program will help you eliminate now.
Mission/Complete is a 12 Week program from Writing Camp with Julie
Jordan Scott that will walk you step-by-step through completing your
big writing project: be it a book, a blog, an ecourse, screen play
or any other "word product".
We will meet weekly via teleconference (or if the timing isn't convenient
for you, you may "meet" via the session recordings) to walk, step-by-step
and build, brick-by-brick as you write, revise and complete that book you
have wanted to write forever but somehow never got to it.
We provide the context, the inspiration and the support so you will write
not on your own, but in community with other writers who are also completing
their own projects.
Why am I creating and facilitating this program? Because while I have a
solid track record of bringing informational products, teleclasses, workshops
and plays into the marketplace, I have had a challenge with taking my voluminous
files for books and turning them into completed works. Yes, I do have two
books under my belt but it has been a long while between projects and I
know myself well.
I do better - much better - when I have a group to whom I am accountable
AND filled with people who are walking alongside me, creating separately
yet creating together.
Here is what we will be covering, week-to-week, during our sessions:
Before Session One:
Registration open through January 10, 2011. Space is limited:
We may need to close registration if it fills too quickly. It would be wise to register now to avoid being left out of this session.
Individualized Roadmap to Completion - Before we begin our meetings, we
will hold several group coaching sessions during the week of January 10 as well as audios to help you create your individualized roadmap to completion.
This is not a cookie cutter program so you will not have a cookie cutter
Roadmap. No generic applications here since we all have different projects
with different needs. This isn't a one size fits all approach, this is a
personalized approach created especially for you.

I just got this email. It sounds like a challenge. I wish I could join. I have my hands full at this time. I am reading some a few self improvement books. The kind that make me work not tell me how good I am right away. Most are the caregiver kind. I am being kinder to myself and therefore more patient with my husband.
