I, Writer Information

I, Writer offers 5-week accountability bootcamps for people who want to stop aspiring to be a writer and start living as one. If you’re not writing, the statement “I am a writer” doesn’t hold water. Having ideas doesn’t make you a writer. Telling your friends you write doesn’t make you a writer. Writers write. There’s no way around that simple truth. This program is crafted to build your identity as a writer through structured commitments, daily effort, and accountability support. Psychological research backs this model up: identity-based commitments are far more effective for transformation than intention-based goals. I, Writer offers small, disciplined group containers. These are not workshops nor critique sessions. We don’t discuss craft, style, voice, or theory. There is no feedback on your writing. What we do instead is provide firm accountability structures, daily writing minimums, and weekly meetings where you must read to your cohort what you've written over the prior seven days. If you miss a meeting or show up without writing from that week to present, you are exited from the program. This finality provides real stakes. If like so many others, you've repeatedly tried to establish a regular writing practice and repeatedly faltered, our ruthlessly effective writing bootcamps may be what you need to move from “I write sometimes” to “I, Writer.”
