At Wordcrafters we know that not being able to fully translate a story idea from head to page can be truly frustrating. We all stall. We all get stuck. We all hit walls or resistance when we start, fix, revise, or finish. The seminars in Eric Witchey’s Fiction Fluency Mastery Series place a real-world focus on helping you produce with confidence and consistency. Each cohort of Fiction Fluency students will walk away with market-tested tools that will function in any genre. These tools allow writers to precisely describe how existing stories function, to diagnose and solve problems in stories under development, and to design stories from scratch.
Fiction Fluency seminars combine Eric Witchey’s practical experience publishing fiction in 12 genres with linguistic and cognitive science research on how readers internalize story. Eric teaches that much like learning to speak sentences in a language fluently, you can learn to speak the structures of fiction fluently, allowing you to connect deeply with the hearts and minds of your audience.


The year-long series explores processes of creativity and how to customize and personalize day-to-day writing habits. With a foundation of how readers read and personal creative practices, the seminars move into the management and manipulation of characters, structures, and techniques that enhance reader experiences. These seminars support the development of intuitive writing by adding to conscious understanding and reinforcing the flow of emotion through the hands.
