YOU HAVE THE SEED OF AN IDEA.
There is a Story in your head.
Get it out of your head and onto the page with WRITE FEELING. ✍️
WRITE FEELING is a week-long course that gives you 5 ninety-minute Guided Writing sessions with Joan, along with in-depth, beefy lectures that provide insight into how to uncover the story YOU need to tell. This is a perfect course to take in tandem with WRITE CHANGE 1 & WRITE CHANGE 2, as it offers all the insight and guidance you will need to make the most out of every timed writing exercise.
After consultation with serious alums, Joan designed a course to support the writing work and the quiet inward healing so critical for artists now. Sessions are designed to support space, inner connection, and the time just to connect with yourself and your work without distraction. Artistic quietude. Deep creative work. Let’s go in.
All writing, All the time.
This class is designed for the ears to the soul to the page (no physical exercises).
BEGIN EACH DAY...

🌟 STUDENT STORIES! 🤩
Emerging Artists to Established Stars celebrate the JSFL Journey!
"When the Pandemic broke out, I was freaked! Out of what seemed like “the blue” JSFL reached out with an invitation to join an Online Writing Lab. The Lab gave me a new focus and community - and ultimately changed my life! Through this Lab I wrote my first draft of Ramona at Midlife. I developed my film in Generators with JSFL Alumni, together we shot a key scene over Zoom, and the film stars another JSFL Alumni, Josh Radnor! My film world premiered at the 2023 Heartland International Film Festival (named one of the top 25 coolest festivals in the world by MovieMaker magazine) and won multiple awards at Festivals, including Audience Choice, Best Ensemble and Outstanding Directorial Debut! I cannot thank you enough for opening this portal!"
