If you are a woman who has ever dreamed of writing a book, then this is the program for you. The one thing every writer needs is an intimate group of like-minded souls to provide encouragement and support to stay inspired throughout any challenges or resistance, and to learn how to craft great stories that stand out!
You’ve got a book you've been thinking about writing, one that you've been trying to start and finish and for some reason you just can't get it done. You're in resistance and don't know why.
Perhaps you want to reinvigorate your passion for writing and create a consistent writing habit.
Maybe you've always wanted to live the life of a writer.
You have a calling to write and this calling just won't leave you alone. You know that if you could just write your book your life will change. You'll feel a sense of accomplishment and relief. You'll feel complete. Imagine the joy and sense of fulfillment you would have if you just finished that one damn book.
Being a writer in the 21st century is the best time time write! You can easily attract an audience, open up new opportunities and feel like you're finally living into the real you!
Sometimes you just wish someone would help you structure your book, teach you storytelling skills and support you step by step.
Or maybe you're afraid you will never have the time to write and you start thinking about whether it's worth your time and second guess yourself.
All in all you feel crappy because you're not writing and you don't know why. There was a time in your life when you loved the thought of writing and you'd give anything to feel a sense of freedom and joy while writing and being creative.
Hi I’m Dawn Montefusco and I believe passionately that if someone feels a call to write a book then the book has to be written.
It can be a memoir, a novel, a book of poetry, a book of essays, or a story you are yearning to tell. When you feel the urge to write you MUST do what it takes to make it happen. You risk your wellbeing and happiness by keeping your gifts trapped inside of you, and you risk holding back the impact you can make in the world.
There was a time not too long ago that I resisted the call to write and my entire spirit felt like it was dying inside. On the outside my life looked okay, great in fact, but on the inside things were meh. I realized I had lost my zest when I was not writing. The less I wrote, the worse I felt.
I took a chance in 2004 and I created a writing group in my home and my life changed. Once I committed to writing regularly for the joy of writing all kinds of things improved. My health improved, my business took off, and I found the relationship of my dreams. My internal world changed dramatically when I knew I was living into my purpose and it was reflected in the outer world. Now I help women all over the world step into their writing life and finish their dream books. They not only feel better, they are making a difference too.
But these women didn't do it alone. They got the guidance, inspiration and support to help them write their books with ease and joy.
My group is a transformational journey that changes lives.
I help women all over the world get back their writing dreams and share their gifts. The Create Your Dream Book group is a precious yearly program to me. I host two groups a year and I pour my heart and soul into it.
My background as a writer, teacher and transformational life coach has helped me hone my expertise to give you the best support possible in this one-of-a-kind program. I have a BA in writing from New York University and an MFA in creative writing from Eastern Washington University. I am also a certified Transformational Solutions Focused Life Coach from Erickson College. I’ve been coaching for over 11 years, teaching for over 29 years, and writing for 44 years. It’s been an amazing journey!
You get graduate level support in learning about storytelling and how to craft your book while also having the guidance of a transformational life coach to break through emotional resistance
Please join me and we can get started.
It's a myth that writers are supposed to do it by themselves. In reality it's the support of a loving community or small group that makes a big difference in any writer's life. Your fellow authors will keep you in the creative flow and on schedule. But you’ll not only have the accountability and support of the group, you’ll also have your own accountability buddy. It's part of why this program is so effective.
Any time resistance rears it's ugly head I'm here to help you conquer it!
I’m available if you have questions, are feeling challenged or need support to keep you on track. My goal is to help you feel great while you see your vision come true!
