    Does this sound like you?

    You have creative stories and ideas tugging at your heart––begging to get onto the page.

    You want to see your ideas translate and come through in the best possible words.

    You want to create great work that readers pass on to their best friends, link to on social, and bring to book club. 

    But you just don’t know how to sit down and do it.

    Maybe every time you sit down to write, you think:

    • Shouldn’t I be helping a client right now?

    • My cat is walking across the keyboard, the laundry needs to be folded, and there are 1000 things pulling me away from writing!

    • I’m terrible at this. I have no idea what I’m doing.

    • This feels like a huge waste of time

    Then Writers Camp is for YOU!

    Join in and find the inspiration, tools, and community to create a sustainable writing routine so you can share your soul stories with the world.

     MEET YOUR STORY GUIDE

    Hey there, storyteller. *Pours you a hot cuppa tea and gestures to the couch.*

    I’m Renee––a writer, coach, water baby, and founder of Writers Camp.

    Things I love: my fur-baby Nala, scuba diving, podcasts, road trips, curling up with an adventure novel, and most of all… 

    Helping creative writers like you find more flow, feel good, and write more. 

    Over my 10 years of writing, teaching, and editing, I’ve helped countless writers find their voice, create more time to write, publish, and feel amazing. 

    Where and how did I learn to do that? Here’s a rundown of my experience: 

    • I’m a passionate writer of nonfiction, fiction, and poetry with more than 30 pieces published online and in print

    • MFA in Creative Writing from Florida Atlantic University

    • 10+ years coaching & teaching writing to college students

    • Certified Master Level Writing Tutor through the College of Reading and Learning Association (CRLA)

    In 2018, I left traditional academia and founded my writing coaching practice. Through my newsletter, free workshops, & paid programs, I’ve helped more than 800 writers grow more confident, create nourishing writing habits, and share their best stories with the world.

    My superpower is helping writers like you feel seen, get clarity, tap into joyful flow, and create unstoppable momentum in creative writing. 

    But that’s just my résumé. 

    THE WHY BEHIND WRITERS CAMP.

    I created this free program to give women writers a significant boost of inspiration and support so they can write creatively with joy, flow, and ease. 

    Creative writing can be a wide, flowing channel for joy. When the channel is open, joy flows into every area of your life: work, home, and play. 

    The problem: most writers block that channel. They don’t feel like they’re allowed to be creative when there’s so much else to do. When the inner critic is raging away in the mind telling you you’ll never be a “real writer.”

    I created this challenge because I want YOU to share stories straight from the soul. 

    The stories that bring you joy. The stories that readers will clutch to their chest and tell everyone they know: You’ve gotta read this! It changed my life!

    I want you to change the world with your words and ideas. 

    Because more good stories create a more peaceful and joyful world. That’s my vision for our future. That’s my vision for you, storyteller. Let’s create it together.

    HAPPY WRITERS
