Turning your truth into story.

Come and join me in an online book writers intensive.

I don’t share much about how writing has saved me.

Or how it was the only thing that helped me survive postnatal depression, as I adjusted to becoming a new solo mother, with bare minimal support, still attempting to run a full time business, somehow managing to hold it all together still.

My book The MotherWild Revolution: Cultural Change through Generational Activism was my safe space. The place I got to share the journey that I did not feel ready to tell the world. It is where I scribbled and expressed the postpartum rage I felt, alchemising my hurt into something of substance for the world to read.

Writing has always been this for me. It has been a gift to myself, first and foremost, to help me process and make sense of the workings of my inner world. And then somehow, often, my words become Autotheory, helping others too. I can’t tell you the amount of messages I receive from people who tell me, “I could have written that myself”, or “I felt like you were writing that book for me”.

I write the things that most people lock away in their basement. And I do this, because it keeps me sane. Watching the movie Hamnet (which, by the way, is an incredibly film), I felt a sense of relief in my body as I watched William Shakespeare go mad, sitting at his desk every evening, scribing his creative ideas as though it was his lifeline.

This is how I feel (and have felt) most of my life. If I don’t write, I will die. But, truly. When I don’t get my ideas onto paper, there is a kind of madness that lives within me.

If you have words within you, that you have not yet shared…. because you do not know where to start… or you do not feel like you are a “good enough” writer… or whatever the resistance is… I encourage you to feel that and do it anyway.

I have written and published four bestselling books over the past decade, and am about to publish my fifth. I have been able to do this, because I have support structures in place to help me scribe my words into structure.

The place in which I do this, is inside a live book writing retreat — not held by me, but by friends of mine who have been doing this for over a decade now, who are impecable at creating spaces for people to feel seen and to finally say what they need to say. And publish.

I am joining another this October and I wanted to invite you to join me, here
