I believe we are born creators. We all have the ability to do more and to be more than we ever thought possible. Knowing that, we can intentionally build the world we want by sharing our words with others.
If you believe in the power of words too, then join me and other like-minded creators with stories to tell. I can show you how to write and publish powerful, lasting stories in my safe, practical, and inspiring writing workshops. Join me. Join us. Tell your story. Change the world.

“Drafting a novel has been a lifelong goal, and every computer or notebook I’ve ever purchased I told myself this would be the one in which I plotted and wrote my first novel. I obtained two university degrees in writing, and yet I still couldn’t get past my fear of failure or my uncertainty about where to start and how. David’s course gave me the framework for accountability and all the support I needed to finally write my first novel in less than eight weeks. The course starts with a plotting structure that helped me enormously to visualize my novel and then follow through with writing it in a logical progression. He’s always available for questions, and each class is structured so that any concerns or challenges during the process can be raised and discussed with other writers. You have to do the work on your own, but this course gives you all the tools you need to succeed. If you’re like me and want more than anything to write your first novel, but something is holding you back, this is the course for you.”
