Join Eric Witchey to learn tips, trips, and brain hacks for when writer’s block comes calling.

Are you:

Stuck? 

Muddled? 

Confused by which next step to take in your creative pursuits? 

Writer’s block is real, but it’s also well understood. 

In this workshop, award-winning writer Eric Witchey will teach you creativity concepts and methods to help you through when your talent and intuition seem to have taken a vacation together. 

This workshop will include some theory, some demonstration, and some fun hands-on experimentation. 

You’ll leave with insights into your own creativity and how to build useful creative habits or improve the habits you already have.

Based on his background in theoretical linguistics, his experience selling fiction in 12 genres, and knowledge gleaned from creativity science and cognitive science, Eric Witchey has put together a group of practical tools writers can use to enhance, develop, and improve their productivity and results.


This stand-alone workshop will offer participants 2 hrs of focused instruction, and give writers who are interested in the Fiction Fluency Seminar Series an opportunity to meet Eric and experience his teaching style. Eric will answer questions about the Fiction Fluency Seminar Series after the workshop.
