Hey there, writer friend,

Free! 

Four-day!

Writing!

Summit!

Forgive the gratuitous use of exclamation points, but I think free online writers summits packed full of awesome info that you can attend *without having to put on pants* are one of the best things the internet has given us…

…and the Writing Brave Summit, hosted by my colleague Brooke Adams Law, is one of the really good ones out there. It kicks off today, and you can register here.

The theme this year is “Reclaim Your Creativity, Channel Your Magic, and Write the Book That’s Calling Your Name,” which makes me want to put a whole bunch of sparkle emojis and twee little Tinkerbells around those words. =)

Here are just a few of the sessions you’ll gain access to when you register:

• My session on character arc, transformation, and that deep, emotional, touchy-feely stuff readers live for, entitled The Arc of Change
• My friend and colleague Traci Skuce’s session on Turning Self-Doubt Into Gold
• Award-winning author and writing teacher Sarah Selecky on The Transformative Power of Creativity
• Author and professor Henry Lien on 4-Part Asian Story Structure (SUCH a good way to get out of the box with The Hero’s Journey, et al!)

Plus, writing coach Monica Hay on The Science & Spirituality of Writing, and the inimitable Brooke Warner (25-year publishing veteran and founder of SheWrites Press) on The Process of Writing Good Memoir.

The whole summit is free to attend live, but if you upgrade to the all-access pass, you’ll gain access to the replays, plus tons of bonuses (including a free gift from me—a one-week trial membership to my new alternative MFA program—more on this later!).

You can learn more and register for the summit here.

I’ll be live on the chat for my talk on Wednesday (tomorrow), so I hope to see you there!

PS. And remember, I’m also offering a free event of my own later this month, The Heart of Story—and if you register for it, you’ll have a chance to receive some free hot-seat coaching from me on your current WIP. You can learn more and register for this event here.
