DETAILED DESCRIPTION: ➤Exploring and sharing the pleasure of words, building the stories that inhabit you, developing your expression, deepening your creativity, exploring contemporary writing, proposing a novel, short stories, a life story, an (auto)biography, a fiction, an essay, song lyrics, various texts or simply a report, a thesis, a report for professional or academic purposes... these are among the objectives of these workshops to deepen or initiate writing and realize one's aspirations by prioritizing the pleasure of writing based on elements of personalized pedagogy. ➤Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally complete your project. Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing. ➤ Overcome your fears ➤ Discover the secret to producing high-quality writing that's 100% enjoyable and 0% writer's block. ➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time ➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward. In short, overcome your fear of writing. Isn't it frustrating to be consumed by the desire to write your project and yet unable to do so? Break down that insurmountable wall that's holding you back. This involves combining improvements in form with refinements in content. For example, concrete techniques for starting your text and overcoming writer's block, feedback/suggestions on your texts, writing and style exercises based on a prompt, a series of precise/pragmatic recommendations and their implementation. That is why, if your manuscript is stuck and you don't know how to start or continue it, if you have all the ideas but don't know what form they should take, if you want to save time in the creative process: let's build the architecture of your story together. Learning objectives include: • Discover writing, build confidence, let your own literary voice/path emerge, and unleash your imagination • Studying and constructing a text, song lyrics... • Calmly refine the style and create consistency between form and content • Research and develop your vocabulary • Acquire techniques and know-how to convey your message both clearly and simply • Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others • Explore your creativity and develop your expression • To construct a complete story by creating characters, settings, lively scenes... • Acquire and master practical writing tools, always with a focus on simplicity/simplification and efficiency (both in content and form) • Discover contemporary writing and diversify your practice • Acquire narrative techniques to engage in long stories So, start, resume or finish a piece of writing you have dreamed of for a long time if you want to write but don't know where to start; if you have a story but don't know how to tell it; if you love to write but have lost your inspiration; if you have a manuscript buried in a drawer and you are afraid of failing. To achieve this, the first step is to unleash your writing and let go: strengthen your imagination, explore your inspiration, and cultivate your originality. Next, turn your weaknesses into a driving force for writing by exploring your wounds to better utilize them and adopt an effective writing method. Finally, master writing techniques and bring characters to life while crafting captivating stories, controlling pacing, and developing suspenseful plots. All this by combining theory and practical/concrete applications: writing assignments based on exercises and then within the framework of your project. During the sessions, you will be guided in your writing project. The trainer will support you in your written communication and offer tools, while helping you to work on and/or optimize your style and imagination. Proofreading, revising, correcting and formatting articles, theses, etc.: these options are also possible. Furthermore, these sessions allow one to improve one's written communication and to study the different methods to achieve this (email, letter, report, presentation...), both in terms of content and form. ➤ THE TRAINER - TEACHER CONSULTANT A graduate of a prestigious French Grande École and an Ivy League university in the United States, he combines academic rigor with modern teaching methods.

Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.
