Hello,

I'm Thea Sullivan (call me Thea!) and creative writing is my passion. I love to help people get inspired, move past their blocks and fears, and discover their unique writer's voice.

Does this sound like you?

You've always wanted to write, but you're not sure how to get started.

You write in a journal but you're ready to move into "real" creative writing.

You used to write, but fell out of the habit.

Or maybe you're already writing, and:

You're in need of some inspiration, guidance, and a sense of creative community.

You want to get clear about your direction, your voice, your genre or subject matter.

You're ready to learn about next steps: creative writing classes, online courses, writers workshops, writing groups--maybe even publishing and MFA programs.

Writing's a journey, and we ALL have questions along the way.

Whether you're brand-new to creative writing or you've been at it for a while, you're bound to need some help and support along the way. We all do! It's not always easy to figure out what to write about or how to get started. It can be tough to keep going with a project all the way to the end. And then there are those complicated matters of revision, sharing your work with other people, and publishing.

If you're new to creative writing, you might be asking:

What are the different genres, and how do I know which one to pick? How do I get ideas? How can I get over my fears? How do I know if my work's any good? How do I know if a class is right for me?

If you're a bit farther along the path, you might wonder:

How do I find my voice? How can I keep up a regular writing practice? What's the best way to get useful feedback and improve my craft? Should I be trying to publish? If so, how? Should I consider getting an MFA?

Wouldn't it be great...

...if you could get helpful answers to these questions from someone who's been there before?

...if you could find creative writing prompts and exercises to get you writing NOW, with just a click of the mouse?

...if you could discover more about what makes you unique as a writer--easily?

Well, now you can!
