In this workshop, we’ll find inspiration in our creative desires, reflect on our core values, and use both to imagine an ideal writing life. From there, we’ll set concrete, measurable goals, and we may even learn how being jealous of others’ accomplishments can help us figure out what we REALLY want.

Description

Writing is so hard! It’s very easy to get wrapped up in one project as the end-all-be-all of your entire writing life. But doing a little bit of long-term goal-setting can give perspective and have a huge impact on your creative satisfaction, whether you want a writing career or a fulfilling hobby or anything in between.

Goal-setting doesn’t have to be tedious! In this workshop, we’ll find inspiration in our creative desires, reflect on our core values, and use both to imagine an ideal writing life. From there, we’ll set concrete, measurable goals, and we may even learn how being jealous of others’ accomplishments can help us figure out what we REALLY want.
