Do you have “write a book” or “journal every day” on your list of New Year’s Resolutions? This virtual workshop is for you! In Unblock Your Brain: A Workshop for Would-be Writers, Jes Trudel will show you how to go from blocked to brainstorming to scribbling furiously. This 1-hour virtual session will cover everything from why we get blocked and how to let go, to tricks and tools for brainstorming and getting the juices flowing. And, most importantly, tips to ensure you never get stuck again. This event is ideal for anyone teen and older who wants to write as a hobby or professionally, but doesn’t want to be bogged down by fear, self-doubt, and perfectionism.
