Courageous Wordsmith

About Us

I'm Amy Hallberg, Editor, Story Mentor & Certified Master Coach. I'm also a working creative who knows that while writing is by nature a solitary pursuit, nobody does it alone. 

(I wouldn't want to.)

Kindred writers have guided me all along, to cultivate story, heal our spirits, and nurture our Muses together.

Some of these friends are joining me here. 

Are you with us?

Based on my experience, I'm crafting sanctuary space for writers, including Membership Circles of reliable peers within the wider collective. Each offers simple frameworks as support.

I know the longing to be a writer. 

I know how creative partnerships matter. 

Most of all I know that my book (and other big projects) would not exist without sanctuary space, compassionate witness, and cross-pollination.

That's what we're offering, with this FREE Collective and paid Membership Circles.

Why This Is For You

You likely have stories to tell and projects to create. A book? A podcast? A film? You name it.

Is it your time to start (or continue)? Please join us.

In Courageous Wordsmith Collective, I bring together (emerging) practicing writers to capture our big narrative arcs so that in sharing our experience with the world ...

• ... we can get clear on the stories we tell ourselves and share publicly;
• ... move forward from raw inklings to inspired work;
• ... and ultimately, tap into wisdom and healing through a writing process, supported by a small circle of fellow creatives within a larger collective.

I'll share what I know and access to writers who inspire me.

You’ll receive ongoing inspiration among fellow Creatives.

We’ll welcome your voice.

If you choose to join a Membership Circle, each week, you'll receive easy exercises to spark insights, lessons on narrative craft, and invitations to share writing with Circle peers in a private forum. Gather monthly on Zoom for Idea Parties.

We're in this together. But remember, you'll move forward with your chosen content, in your way, at your pace.

This isn't a sprint. It's also not a marathon. It's a pilgrimage.

This story is all yours. We honor that here.
