Tame Your Writing Demons (Kill Writer's Block)
Demons possess every writer's imagination and writing process, aka Writer's Block. "Famous" writers have learned to harness 'demon energy' for creativity, rather than waste energy trying to defeat those demons. We'll lure your demon out of its dark corner so you can name it, tame it and get it to work for you instead of against you. Bring a short description or object that symbolizes your demon.Book Writing Demon Program
