Trust Your Words: A Monthly Creative Reset for Dreamers

A live, guided writing workshop for mid-journey writers who feel stuck—but still want to show up.

Do you struggle with:

• A story that won’t flow, no matter how much you care about it

• A draft you can’t finish, or a voice that won’t speak up

• Burnout that makes creativity feel heavy, not joyful

• The urge to polish instead of write, avoiding the mess of drafting

• Self-doubt that whispers, You’ll never finish this

• A writing practice that’s stalled, lonely, or filled with pressure

If so, I get it. I’ve been there. That’s exactly why I created Trust Your Words—
a monthly sanctuary where writers return to their intuition, reignite their creativity, and find their way back to the page.

🌟 So you can:

• Write without judgment or pressure—just curiosity and flow

• Rebuild confidence in your voice

• Get out of your head and into your hands

• Make progress even when you’re stuck

• Connect with others who get it—and write alongside you

• Leave with words on the page, clarity in your heart, and a little more hope

🧘‍♀️ What to Expect

📅 First Monday of each month
🕚 11am – 12pm MST (60 minutes)
💻 Live on Zoom — not recorded

Each month, we explore a new theme and follow this guided structure:

• A 2-minute meditation to settle your body and mind

• A quiet moment to check in with your intuition (yourself, your creative self, or your characters)

• Three writing sprints using optional prompts and poetry

• Encouragement to write freely—no editing, no judgment, just flow

• Optional sharing that builds trust, connection, and community

• A final 10-minute deep dive sprint to help you discover, surprise, or shift something inside

This isn’t about finishing your novel in an hour.
It’s about showing up for your dream—and yourself—with compassion and consistency.

Whether you’re an emerging author, a burned-out storyteller, or someone returning to a writing life that once brought you joy, this workshop is for you.

💬 What Writers Are Saying

“After Marta’s workshop, I wrote 22,000 new words in two weeks on a story that continues to flow.”
— J. Sinclair

“The prompts worked well because they were open-ended enough to appeal to creatives of various types.”
— L. Lowdermilk

“I wasn’t ready to stop writing. Amazing how hard it can be to start, but once I do... it feels wonderful.”

“Resonates with writers at every stage of their journey. Just a few minutes in and my words were flowing better than they had in a while—I even shocked myself by sharing some of them!”

✍️ Why Me?

I’m Marta Lane—novelist, former TV editor, and creative doula.

I’ve been a food journalist, a recipe developer, and the founder of Tasting Kauai, a guidebook and food tour business that connected thousands of visitors to the island’s top chefs. Now I write fiction, lead workshops, and support mid-journey writers like you—people who still believe in their dream, even when it feels far away.

These workshops are the culmination of 13 years of intuitive writing practice.
They helped me find my voice—and keep going. I created them to help you do the same.

🔥 Why Now?

Because burnout doesn’t go away on its own.
Because your dream still matters.
Because you don’t need to wait until you “feel ready” to start again.

You just need a place to land—and a creative reset.
