About the workshop
Calling all teacher’s pets!!! If you’re a creative that edits while you write, find it hard to know when a piece is “finished,” or dread working on the sloppy first draft — this workshop is for you!
Details
So many creatives are desperate to write freely but feel shackled by their own perfectionism.
In this 2 hour workshop, we’ll work on quieting the perfectionistic voice, use prompts to help us crack open our writing to its messiest potential, and commiserate with a community of former Good Students ready to become rebels.
Workshop takeaways
• Prompts to get messy • Understanding the root of *your* creative perfectionism • Q&A with Haley — ask her questions about publishing, attracting an online audience, or anything else about her writing journey!
Additional info
If you can't attend this class live, it will be recorded! Students will receive a recording the day after the class, and it will be available for 30 days.
