Hello Fellow Writer,

I’ve been writing my whole life and in all that time, it never occurred to me that not writing was an option. If I had a problem or got stuck, I would figure it out and keep going. When I decided to focus on my writing more seriously, I found a writing mentor, then another, and another, and eventually I realized I wanted to be a writing mentor.

Because I had noticed a certain hole in the writing industry. There were classes, books, and channels, dedicated to writing skills and tips and tricks, but when I asked people what was keeping them from writing, the answer was very rarely a problem with their story.

Over and over I heard a variation on: “I don’t have enough time.”, “My job is eating up all my energy.”, or ‘I just don’t think I’m good enough to write.” And they would stay stuck, or worse, stop writing altogether.

Because there is a dearth of classes, books, and channels dedicated to what is essentially, the skill of being a writer. That’s why I created Learn to Writer, where the focus is how to navigate the mental challenges of being a writer, and how to apply those skills to make your writing goals a reality.

Let’s get writing,

Laura
