The Playful Writing Practice PLAYbook
Tired of writing advice that makes you feel like you’re just not doing it… the right way?
This PLAYbook (because who wants the word “work” associated with creative practice?) is based on Module 1 of Writing From the Top of Your Head®, straight from my 6-week program.
It includes five exercises (plus reflections) built to smash perfectionism, lower the bar all the way to the basement, and get you writing with the reckless abandon you had before anyone told you there was a “right way” to do it.
No craft lecture. No rules. Just permission to write badly, on purpose, and fall back in love with the page.
