May Events

Hey, it’s Michael here, alongside Darius and John.

Here are the May events we have lined up for our paid community members so that you can lock them in on your calendar.

Workshop: The Power of ‘Open and Closed Doors’ in Writing Enthralling Stories (Friday, May 16th at 9am EST)
Q&A and Community Hang-Out (Friday, May 30th at 9am EST)

We will be sending reminders to all of our paid subscribers a week before the event takes place and also one 24 hours before kick-off.

Workshop: On the Power of ‘Open and Closed Doors’ in Writing Enthralling Stories (Friday, May 16th at 9am EST)

In a previous workshop, we dove into proven ways to win your readers’ attention from your very first line. This month, we will continue pulling at that thread and explore a critical tool to ensure your readers stay hooked until the very last line: the power of Open and Closed Doors.

We will dive into:

The psychology of why Open and Closed Doors is so effective (hint, they create intrigue and tension)
Examples of effective Open and Closed Doors in action
Exercises to strengthen this critical skill

The workshop will last roughly one hour. As always, I’ll be hanging out for an additional 30 minutes in case you have any questions, and will be logging in 15 minutes early if you want to chat before kick-off.

Q&A/Hang-Out (Wednesday, April 30th at 12pm EST)

If you’re looking to connect with more fellow writers, share your experiences in the writing trenches, and receive community feedback to your questions, we’d love to see you there.

And as always, if you have any questions you’d like us to explore, load us up before the Q&A takes place by responding to one of our articles, sending me a DM, or shooting us an email.

Have a great rest of the day and we hope to catch you at the workshop and Q&A.

— Michael, Darius, and John.
