The Writer’s Room

A Masterclass in Crafting and Publishing Your Story

I’ve been a bit quiet lately. Shhhhh… I’ve been working on something! You are getting a sneak peek!

For a couple of years, I have been working with writers, sharing my process for dreaming up, writing, and publishing books!

I decided to put it all in a book, much like The Documentary Filmmaking Masterclass. A book I published in 2019 that still supports filmmakers on their journey.

I just received this note yesterday! (I have permission to share)

I’m sharing the entire book with my Writers Room Members! I’d love to get your feedback! I am specifically looking for places where there may be a redundancy, or you require clarity. Of course, if you see a typo- that’s awesome!

The link to the manuscript is at the bottom of this post! (If you don’t see the link, Become a paid subscriber to read it!)

Here’s a little bit about the book:

The Writer’s Room: A Masterclass in Crafting and Publishing Your Story

"I am loving the process that Betsy guides us through in our MasterMind group. It's forcing me to dig deeper, ask tougher questions and face things I may have skirted over had I been writing on my own. The process is also becoming a beautiful container for greater inspiration to flow. I am remembering moments and events that I had forgotten that I definitely want to include in the story! Thank you so much, Betsy, for the expertise and for the love and support. You provide a perfect balance of honest feedback and cheerleading as I move through raw vulnerability toward authentic expression." -  Catherine Stilo, Mastermind Member
