YOUR MOTORCYCLE DIARIES: A TRAVEL WRITING WORKSHOP JUST FOR RIDERS

Join the course, the group, and the community

Whether you’ve ridden around the world or ridden around the neighborhood, you have stories to tell. You might even have a book.

How does nine weeks to crafting your story for publication with support and encouragement sound to you?

Are you a professional writer who needs accountability and beta readers for a new project? Do you dream of writing stories for magazines? Contributing to anthologies? Publishing your own book? 

Please join me and a group of awesome rider-writers for an eight-week group workshop to craft and polish your motorcycle diaries.

You'll also get forever access to my online travel-writing course, to our travel writing community, and connection with an awesome tribe of people who love doing what you love doing... riding and writing. 

And... BONUS! Motorcycle magazine writers and editors are also participating, to let you know what they want to publish. Horray!

Sound good? Sure it does! If you're totally ready, hit the button. Not sure? Let's talk!

Let me tell you more about it...

Over the many years I've worked with writers, I've found that we achieve the best results in groups. If you're like most of us, you're a little nervous about putting your work, your heart, your soul, out into the world. You might also need deadlines and accountability. We've got you!

Would you like the confidence that comes when you know you're putting a GREAT story out into the world? 

I've guided individual authors and writing groups to joyful authoring and successful publication for over two decades. And it will make me so happy to guide you, my motorcycling friend, to telling your best story. 

Here's what you'll get

This workshop features group motivation, self-study, and a tribe you will be connected with forever. Here's what will happen.

  • You'll get immediate access to my online travel writing course, so you can start self-study and writing ahead of our first meeting.
  • An 8-week journey in a group setting to workshop your story, provide feedback, and encouragement.
  • Forever access to the community... can you say "writing group?" Yay!
Writing craft to publication

Be awesome. Be publishable.

Our aim for the 8-week program is to work toward making your story awesome and publishable. Plus, you will be able to apply the techniques you used in your first story to every story you write in the future.

This process works!

This course, combined with the group workshop process has worked for my own writing groups so I know it will work for you, too. And again, I am thrilled to be able to offer it to my motorcycle rider-writer tribe!
