Make Writing a Happy Habit – Self Study Course

Finally, make progress and enjoy your writing life!
 Six week self-study e-course from Cynthia Morris

If you’re tired of struggling to get to your writing projects, Make Writing a Happy Habit is what you’ve been waiting for. This e-mail course goes where other classes don’t: straight to the heart of why you write, so you can build a solid foundation to continue writing even when class is over.

If you are:

  • Full of ideas but lack the discipline to focus, follow through and finish
  • Isolated and yearning for the support of a writing community
  • Lacking the structure and focus you need to stay with your writing projects
  • Unable to make time for writing, always pushing it aside for other demands…

This is the class that will put writing where it belongs: at the heart of your creative life so you can feel great about seeing your brilliant ideas take shape.

Here’s what I’ve seen in over 14 years of coaching writers:

Many writers will start their writing lives with a class in how to write a novel, essays, a blog, poetry. This is normal, and of course we need instruction so we can learn our craft.

The problem is that we count on these classes to help us build a writing life, and the classes aren’t designed to do that. They’re designed to teach us the craft of novel or poetry writing.

You use the class deadlines to give you structure to make sure you write, and that works for a while. But then what happens when the class is over?

You know it too well: without the structure of the class, you don’t write. And you beat yourself up for it.

You can make writing a habit – a habit you anticipate, enjoy, and that enriches your life. In this course you will:

Make it happen

  • Use structures and systems that help you stay organized
  • Keep a consistent writing schedule that works in your busy life
  • Choose a project to focus on to give your writing intentions traction

  • Engage your emotions rather than be overwhelmed by them
  • Recognize your writing style so you feel free to express yourself authentically

Make it integrated to empower your whole life

  • Identify the powerful force that motivates you past obstacles
  • Get help from friends and family to make it easier
  • Learn how to balance multiple projects with the rest of your commitments

Make it connected

  • Tap your writing DNA through your creative ancestors
  • Develop a supportive writing tribe both online and in person
  • Knowing how, when and from whom to get useful feedback.

and Make Writing a Happy Habit from the comfort of your home no matter where you live.

Writers of every level and genre will benefit from Make Writing a Happy Habit.

With the happy writing habit you will:

  • Have clarity on what you want to write
  • Have made significant progress on a project
  • Know your next steps
  • Enjoy a writing habit that suits your goals and style

I’m your writing coach, Cynthia Morris, and I’ve coached thousands of writers to create their happy habit. My happy writing habit has allowed me to finish and publish Create Your Writer’s Life, write a historical novel, Chasing Sylvia Beach, pen five e-books and write over 500 articles. I use my successes to mentor you to achieve yours.

Imagine the joy I feel when I see my students go from stressed, uptight and fearful to happy, engaged, and loving writing! That transformation is why I put this curriculum together in a way that allows you to work on your own project and get support from me.

Finally, you’ll have the structure and focus to write what you really want. At the end of the class you’ll have everything you need to keep writing – whether you’re in a class or not. The lessons will provide you with the tools you need to keep renewing your writing habit.

And because all work and no play makes for a dull day, you’ll get plenty of inspiration to make your writing habit a happy one – a habit you relish, a habit that enhances the rest of your life, a habit that expresses your true vitality.

Based on my book, Create Your Writer’s Life, this class will gain a deeper relationship with their writing to enjoy your brilliance, not fight it.

Get in now and stop dreading writing!
