The Conjuring Clarity writing course is the magic elixir you need to create a solid foundation from which to start writing your book.
After working with thousands of college students for two decades as well as private clients, Johnnie Mazzocco discovered that before people can put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard to start writing a book, there are other skills and beliefs they need to to create the necessary foundation to be successful.
This course is ideal for anyone wanting to write a novel, memoir, or non-fiction self-help/business book.
Part 1
- Week 1 | Planning - Anticipating blocks/obstacles and taking pre-emptive action
- Week 2 | Scheduling - The power of time banking and calendaring (and discovering this type is best for you)
- Week 3 | Mindset - A look at how Abundance/Growth and Scarcity/Fixed mindsets show up in writing, and the myth of writer's block
- Week 4 | Committing - What it really looks like to commit to writing a book (and how the people in your life are part of the plan)
- Week 5 | Your people - How to define and deeply develop characters (for fiction and memoir) OR your Ideal Reader (for non-fiction self-help/business)
- Week 6 | Backstory - Understanding the detailed histories of your people
- Week 7 | Opening scene + Inciting incident (for fiction and memoir) OR The Big Question (your Ideal Reader's) and your answer
