Come on this journey with me!
In five weeks we can write a novel together. You'll get the exclusive template that I've developed and used multiple times to create an engaging cozy mystery that readers love.
With a blueprint, my guidance, and a community you can complete that novel in 5 weeks.
Join us on this adventure!
Cozy Mystery Novel Workshop
A combination of recorded classes along with a private live community to answer questions whenever you have them, and daily word sprints to keep you writing!
We include a number of worksheets at each step of the way and a complete cozy novel workbook to help you work through each act, chapter and scene.
