HOW IT WORKS
Start With 6 Weeks of Intensive Coaching
SIT WRITE HERE utilizes a mindset-first approach to coaching. In the first weeks of the program we address all the things that can interfere with getting words on the page, from writer's block to imposter syndrome. Once the words are flowing, we transition into craft work, including story structure, character development, world building and more. We wrap up the initial six weeks with step-by-step instructions on how to edit like a boss. I walk you through all of it, one day at a time.
KEEP GOING
With Extended Accountability Coaching
Upon enrolling in the Sit Write Here program, you will gain access to the Mindful Writing Online Community.
This wonderful group of writers meets every week to ask questions, deepen their understanding of writing as a craft, and support each other on their journey to publication.
After your initial six months, you are welcome to renew your subscription and continue on with the group for as long as you need support.

"In the initial 6 weeks I went from 5,800 words to 70,000."
- Anne (who worked full-time while enrolled in the SIT WRITE HERE program)
"April's program really pushed my writing to the forefront. It gave me permission to say 'this is important, it's not just a hobby.'"
- Jennifer (fiction writer & full-time mom)
"I could lock the door and tell the kids “it’s going to be one hour.” I’d get it done for the day and it just became a habit…"
- Eric (thriller writer and retire lawyer)
"The program really helped me with establishing a daily writing practice and being consistent with it."
- Barbara (non-fiction writer)
