COUCH TO 100K – KICKSTART YOUR WRITING AND GO THE DISTANCE
Drawing on her own experience, multi award nominated, Irish Times Bestselling author, Cat Hogan will inspire you to write by busting the writing myths. She’ll give you the tools and teach you the tricks, the outline, and the nuts and bolts of the writing process. If anyone can motivate you to write that book, screenplay, play, or collection of short stories- it’s her.

In the space of two years, Cat Hogan has written and published two best sellers (There Was A Crooked Man, They All Fall Down) while raising a pair of little boys and running her own content marketing business. Her third novel (Once I Caught A Fish Alive) will be published in summer ‘18.

People often say- ‘I think I have a book in me’. If anyone can motivate you to write that book, screenplay, play, or collection of short stories- it’s her. Prompts and exercises will be given to help you jump over any mental blocks. Writers block?!- What writers block. Finally, she’ll show you how to sprinkle a bit of magic on your work.

Starting in the Stella Maris Centre in Kilmore Quay on Tuesday 6th of February 7pm – 8.30pm. €30.00 per session. Spaces are limited and booking is advised. Contact the Stella Maris Centre on 053 912 9922 or email manager@stellamariscentre.com or catherina.hogan78@gmail.com
