How it works
Creativity Intensive clients
One semester for your creativity
Imagine a university-level class developed solely for you and your creativity. As a working writer, I have the luxury of only working with a max of four clients at a time at the most. You get extremely personalized, focused attention.
Over three months, we’ll meet six times over Zoom, and I’ll give you three exercises and notes to mull over in between. Plus, you get a Bonus seventh session (or workshop) free! Read on…
Single Sessions
For new and previous clients
Although clients get 100x more in the six-session Creativity Intensive semesters, by popular demand, I do now offer single appointments, at a premium ($495/hour). I will give up to three exercises verbally at the end of these sessions, but there is no follow-up; i.e., I don’t write up any notes, insights or exercises or stay in touch in between appointments like I do in the Semester program.
Bonus: Creativity Intensive clients are welcome to come back any time for single sessions at a reduced rate ($250 per session).
Free! Bonus session or workshop
For Creativity Intensive clients only
You choose! Up to three months after your semester, you get to choose: a free session for you (or a gift certificate for a friend!), or a free one-hour online workshop for up to 12 people. Want to bring me into talk creativity and innovation to your team? Book club? Group of friends? You’ve got me for an hour.
* Or an Inner Critic (people usually get tied up by one or the other).
True story: When I wrote the Creativity at Work column for the Seattle Times, they let me give this title to one of my columns. Everyone I’ve ever worked with — from kids in a psychiatric hospital to CEOs of multi-national corporations — has amassed an amalgamation of voices that they’ve internalized. These voices are meant to keep you safe, but they’re total jerks about it. I don’t want to get rid of those voices — they keep you from being a sociopath or narcissist, after all — but we’ll work on how to quiet them down.
Third Layer lesson: Embrace your Inner Critic or imposter syndrome (just tell it/he/she/they to pipe down a li’l bit).
