what a generous question!wins from the last week: I have the level of WhatsApp engagement in my “Write in Ten“ writer development group that I was aiming for with last year‘s program. Last year, I often felt like I was the only one posting and this year, I have the higher quality challenge of making sure I keep up with everyone else’s posts. also, I was invited to submit a workshop proposal to a secondary school. Got super excited about what I want to offer the kids about adapting Jane Austen for the stage. can’t wait to hear from others!

already learned something i can use! thank you. excited about this space. xx

Hello, all! I am Joanna Norland - Canadian expat in London/East Sussex, and excited to be here with other women entrepreneurs. I am a writing coach and playwright at www.joannanorland.com — working with people at all stages, individually, through my 10-week development program & through workshops. As a writing coach, I start with the premise that everyone has a story to tell - and I guide people to get that story out of their heads, onto the page and into the world. Unique brilliance? Guiding people who don’t identify as writers to see the potential in their ideas, develop a structure and a roadmap and carry them through — whatever their form or experience level. I ignite story. Which means I want to know your story! What brings you to Liz’s group?!

proud of you, too! Proud of kicking off ‘Write in Ten’ , my 10 week writing program. -the boomerang of seeing my members’ work take off and the impact on theirs lives tells me I got the timing right.

excited!
