| Hi Friend,
Welcome to our (Little Late) Mid-Month Monthly Check in from Barany School of Fiction!
I hope you’re well and writing or editing, promoting or daydreaming your next books. Or all of the above! Or perhaps you're resting and feeding the creative well.
It’s all part of the creative process.
If you need some encouragement to get writing again, check out my recent article on "One Word At A Time: The Law of Compound Effects":
In this newsletter: - Mid-month check-in
- New Feature: Monthly group Coaching Call: June 2018
- You have lifetime access to your courses at Barany School of Fiction
- Branding for Novelists live course is coming this summer

Mid-Month Check In
How is your writing going?
Even if it's not, and you'd like it to be, hit reply and let me know. And if it going well, hit reply and let me know that too.
Or post in our online community at Fellowship of the Pen *secret* Facebook group here. We'd love to support you in community there.
This community is an added benefit of being a part of Barany School of Fiction.
Ask questions, post celebrations, meet friends, make new ones, and share your writing.
**Did you know that asking questions is a marker of being successful (however you define success!)?
If you’d like to join and haven’t already, there’s a 3-step process because this is “secret” group. (Hoops to jump through per Facebook.)
The group is “secret” so that you can feel safe sharing story ideas and your writer’s life without anyone outside the group seeing your posts or even seeing that you’re in the group.
First, email me to say you want to join the group, Fellowship of the Pen. Just hit reply :) That way I know to respond to the next steps more quickly.
Second, friend me on Facebook here:
(You won’t be able to see the group until you’re a member.)

NEW MONTHLY GROUP COACHING CALL: JUNE 2018
I'm designing a new benefit of being a member of Fellowship of the Pen and current or former student/workshop attendee/client of Barany School of Fiction and our other programs:
A once-a-month group coaching call.
Possible start date: June 21, 2pm PT/5pm ET (subject to change, or new time each month) Call to last 30 minutes. Longer if there are more questions. The call will be on Zoom Meeting. Details coming soon!
It would be a live and recorded Q&A, entirely run by your questions and my answers, and your answers too, since we are a community and learn from each other.
I'd probably also add in Creativity Welcome and perhaps a short 2-3 minute writing exercise.
How does that sound to you? And is there anything else you'd like to see this community support you in?
Thanks!
Let me know your thoughts or post in the Facebook group here. (You need to be a member to post in the group.)
♥That’s my mid-month check in! What is yours? Feel free to email me and let me know how your writing is going and post in the Fellowship of the Pen Facebook group. I'd love to hear from you.
Happy Writing!
Best,
Beth

PPS. Branding for Novelists live course is coming this summer.
Dates: June 19-July 31, 2018 course
You're getting ready to publish a book or you want to be ready to do so -- but you don't know where to begin.
We can help you with that. Our live course offers a step by step approach and a safe place to practice and play.
You don't like how marketing is done out there and you know there's a better, but are overwhelmed by how to figure it out.
We encourage you to clarify your values and your mission and then find marketing and promotional options that fit for you.
We'll be covering everything we cover in the home study course, plus have bi-weekly workshops so you can get immediate feedback on your marketing: Author Branding Statement, Author Bio, launch plans, and more.
Perfect if you're getting ready to launch a book, or want to refresh up your author presence.
More details:
Space limited! Join us for a live course for 15 dedicated writers.
We'll meet for 7 weeks and help you:
-- craft a 1-sentence branding statement to entice and invite people into your world
-- write an author bio for your blog, your book, and social media to have at the ready
-- use the call to action in a way that’s aligned with your values
-- how to set up a mailing list system that works while you sleep
-- and more!
