Writing is full of highs, but, like most careers, it can also feature some lows. In this masterclass, author coach Kelly Weekes will explore resilience throughout the author journey. She’ll cover how to bounce back from rejection and how to look after yourself as an author at all stages of your career, whether you are glued to your desk writing, submitting to agents, or delivering that second book. Plus, Kelly will offer tips and tricks to help you build your confidence and keep imposter syndrome at bay.
The session will end with a brief Q&A, so come ready with your questions.
The masterclass will take place online via Teams. It will also be recorded so if you are unable to attend live, you'll be able to catch-up and access the recording for up to two weeks after the event has taken place.
