Ten to the End

10 Months to the End of Your Book
Next workshop begins October 7, 2024 with
Pat Dunn and Alexandra Soiseth

Ten months to the end of your book is a unique blend of generative writing and story development, with craft teaching and practice sessions as well as extensive connection and accountability sessions and structures. Ideal for the writer with a partial or first draft needing refining and/or focus and/or building, or, the writer with just the seedling of an idea and a few notes.

Testimonials

"Finally, a way to really get it done! Incisive individual coaching. Optional writing “alongside” kept me moving. Alex and Pat are a fun, fabulous, honest, accessible, encouraging team. Highly recommend!" - Deborah

"Just the discipline of chaperoned writing for one hour a day four days a week is worth it. That it spills over into other writing sessions in the day is more than worth it.Just having a one on one with Alex or Pat is worth it. I have experienced only one partnership session but I could tell from it that a writing buddy would be a desirable component of what the Castle Keepers provide." - Sam / Ten to the End (Current participant.)

“So glad I signed up for Ten to the End. I have been talking about writing my book for the past 20 years, and started working on short stories about 7 years ago. When we were on vacation in January, my husband said, "You keep talking about this book, When are you going to write it?" I was annoyed at him, but 2 days later I saw the email for 10 to the End, and I decided to sign up, despite my reservations. I am now writing my book, and I have the support of Alex and Pat with the ups and downs of that process. I have made it a priority. I will have a first draft by the beginning of September, and that feels amazing..." - Annick
