Most attempts to deal with writer’s block focus on the writer’s emotional state, particularly with regard to self-esteem. While these approaches have value, other weapons are available to enter one’s creativity that have nothing to do with one’s feelings. This workshop introduces seven hacks to bypass writer’s block. This workshop will be built around playful exercises drawing from playground games, TV writers’ room pitch-outs, mystical consultation, and technology, among other tools. Writers will complete the workshop with an arsenal of new tools to defibrillate their creativity beyond intensive inner gazing.
Classes are taught online and require reliable Internet connection, although in the past participants have logged on from coffee shops, cafes, and even an airplane; a webcam is suggested but not required. They are recorded.
Cost is $119 ($89 for former students, which includes classes/workshops with me in other venues, such as conference or convention workshops and mentoring sessions). Patreon supporters receive the discount or free classes, depending on their support level and can also receive the video afterward for $40; otherwise the cost is $50.

Free scholarships: If you cannot afford a class but really want to take one, apply for a Plunkett Scholarship. Each class has three slots reserved for such students, and the sole criteria is only that you can’t currently afford the class. To apply for a Plunkett, which covers the entire cost,mail me and tell me why you want to take the class in 100 words or less. QUILTBAG and PoC candidates are especially encouraged to apply.
The Plunkett Scholarships are named for Edward Plunkett, who wrote as Lord Dunsany. Scholarships are given out on a rolling basis; I suggest getting them in sooner rather than later. You may apply for up to three classes.
