In the beginning was the word…a word.

In the beginning was the word…a word.

Note the little w. I’m not about to launch into a rewriting of John’s gospel. Or get into an argument with Jehovah’s Witnesses at the front door.

But what I wanted to say is that words are powerful. Words create. (Worlds, books, sales, fans, clients…)

Words can win you awards. (I’ll stop banging on about Helen Hill and Falling off the Ladder soon, I promise.)

Words can start your business. Julie Creffield wrote her first blog which turned into a business which turned into her first book. (Sidebar I was speaking with her after the London Professional Speaker’s Association meeting on Saturday and she has three books she wants to write this year which sounds crazy, but when you are talking to an author as prolific as Julie, you’d be wondering what she was doing with her time If she wasn’t writing.)

BUT! Words require writing.

And they are just words.

Whether they are in a book or spoken on a podcast or create characters, or take you on a journey in an imaginary world or bring people along for the ride and make them believe in you and what you are selling…

So, it makes sense to have habit in place where you sit down to write these words. Whatever they are. Whatever journey they are going to take you and your readers on.

This is why I’m so passionate about holding space for people to write.

Words change lives.

I want to hold space for people to change lives.

What’s in it for you though?

1. When you write every week you actually write. As I’ve said, in the sessions people are writing posts for Instagram, preparing for scripts for podcasts, writing and posting fanfic, writing newsletters, free writing for their mental health, writing for clients, writing sales copy, writing blogs…

2. You get to write in community. So there’s someone (me ?) who cares if you write each week or not. We have some banter in the chat box and I drop in like a DJ every half hour to check on you.

3. You can write pretending everyone else on the call is going to read what you are writing and that brings some magic to your words. How often do you write wondering who is going to read your words and not tapping into your ideal reader/client? And you can post your words into our Facebook group after the call for all of us to actually read it!

4. You can settle your mind. Say you show up and life is crazy. Taking some time to ground yourself, brain dump, and organise your thoughts can make you even more productive out of the sessions.

5. You’re writing something that could change someone’s life. Make their life better. Help them discover a new skill. Help them heal from something. Help them achieve something. You’re the life-changer I’m talking about.
