About the Event
Writers often hit a wall partway into a project. Suddenly they’re out of energy, inspiration, or confidence—or all three. Getting stuck is a common, almost unavoidable stage in the creative process. Drawing on her experience as both an author and an editor/instructor/writing coach, Frances Peck will share tips and encourage discussion on how to pull your WIP from the quagmire and get it flowing again.
