The Creative Momentum Workshop: Thrive through the middle of the creative process and and complete your manuscript!
The Creative Momentum Course supports both new and seasoned writers to thrive through and beyond the middle of their manuscript and actually finish their book!
Balancing focus, playfulness, and warmth, you will melt creative blocks, craft a well-structured story, and grow into the person who has written the book you once dreamed of.
With special attention to sustaining depth, transformation, and compelling storytelling through the middle and end of your book, the Creative Momentum Course supports writers to craft their book from a foundation of self-connection, ritual, and compassion.
A caring cohort of fellow writers will affirm and uplift your vision for your manuscript, helping you resolve conundrums and write resonantly.
Our holistically-structured process means you don’t have to sweat figuring out the next step or holding it all together by yourself. You will shape your book through loving your characters and valuing your voice.
Monthly:
• 1 Class, The Craft of the Creative Process, 10:00-11:15am PT / 2:00-3:15pm ET on the First Friday of each month, online
Moving step-by-step through the Hero’s Journey and other story structures, we identify creative blocks and translate our challenges into creative content, traveling our own journey as we write engaging narratives comprised of emotionally resonant scenes.
• 1 Writing Workshop, 10:00-11:15am PT / 2:00-3:15pm ET on the Third Friday of each month, online
Grounded in respect for our fellow writers, we dedicate ourselves to helping each piece of writing become resplendently true to itself.
Rolling up our sleeves and getting into craft discussions about each other’s work is a powerful way to improve our own writing. And receiving our fellow writers’ enthusiasm and caring attention towards our work is the best way to keep our momentum rolling forward.
Expect to read up to 20 pages each month.

Facilitator:
Meg Hayertz (she/they), author of Tarot for Beginners (Althea Press), believes writing is an act of listening. As the founder of Creative Momentum, she helps writers free their voice, nourish their creative practice, and finish their project. She holds an MFA in Writing and Consciousness from California Institute of Integral Studies and her fiction has been published in CALYX, The Louisville Review, Press Pause, and elsewhere. Also, she believes in you.
“I went from having hardly anything written but with a big idea to 40+ pages written of my graphic novel script. It's been encouraging to see this project finally come to fruition and be supported by the crew at Creative Momentum.”
- Abigail Carlisle
"Meg directs me back towards the core of the project before I wander too far off the path."
- Toni T."I’ve really enjoyed working with Meg. She was a huge help in keeping me focused on what I wanted to do with the book and in keeping my pace moving quickly. I appreciate that she learned what I wanted to get out of my writing and then held me to it. In working with Meg, my work has gained more depth and I have a stronger understanding of the story itself as well as the characters. I wouldn't have gotten to this point on my own."
- Gary T.
