Start Your Story Workshop

Does this sound familiar?

You have a story you're finally ready to write. It's your story—the life you've lived, the things you've overcome, the mountains you've climbed. It's your legacy. The piece of you that outlives you.

And maybe, just maybe, there's something of your story that will help someone else walk theirs.

So, you start writing and writing and get hit with self-doubt. Is your story going to be interesting to anyone other than you? Is it any good? Will people care? What if no one reads it? What if everyone reads it?

Or maybe you never start writing because you can't figure out where to start. Should you start with when you realized life was hard? Or should you start with today and work your way back? Shoot, maybe you should just start with your birth. Or your mom's birth. Actually, Grandma's birth was pretty significant...

Who knew that starting would be one of the hardest parts of telling your story?

As an award-winning memoirist and best-selling author, I've learned how to inspire and encourage others as a result of a strategic start. This includes capturing my reader from the first lines, and keeping them engaged.

Wanna know how I do it?

Join me in this 2-day pre-recorded challenge where we’ll talk through how to structure your story so that it's consumable, impactful, and satisfies the calling on your soul to get that story into the world.

Marcy Pusey, CRC, CTRP, is the founder of Miramare Ponte Press, a best-selling, award-winning author, international speaker, story coach, book editor, and mama to 4 humans and 2 pups.

She has been featured on numerous platforms & stages, including publishing 18+ books for children & adults. She's taken her message twice to the TEDx stage, with ongoing invitations to share her ideas from the TEDx platform.

Marcy does her best writing on retreats with a nearby hot tub, in any castle, or within view of the sea. She now takes years of experience as a storyteller to guide people through getting their own stories into the world through editing and critiquing, consulting, Done-4-You services, and story coaching.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you. Today, I just finished visiting a school–they were very happy to have my book in their school. The principal kept introducing me as an author–never in my life did I dream I’d be here. Today, hearing him say that made me realize that I AM an author, and it’s because of you. Because you believed in a vision I had; you helped me get through it. Teddy (The Boy with Glasses) is getting out there because you believed in me. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Marcy. I can not thank you enough.

How do I know if this is for me?
This is for anyone who wants to write (or speak!) their story and just doesn't know where to start. Maybe you've begun writing but have a nagging question in your mind about whether you're doing it right. Or maybe you just keep over-thinking and never writing. This workshop is for the person who is ready to overcome this obstacle and invest in themselves and their message by taking a leap and 180 minutes of their life to start their story in the best possible way.
When are the workshops?
You get to choose! Set aside 90 minutes for two consecutive days to keep the momentum, and I will walk you through how to start your story through pre-recorded videos. You'll start writing before the two sessions are over.

These are both educational and experiential. You'll have time each day to put into practice what you're learning about starting your story.
Where will I find these workshops?
You'll get a link with access to the mini-course. If you haven't already set up a login and password, you'll be prompted to do so. You can access the Start Your Story Workshop for the life of the course, repeatedly, every time you have a new project to start (or re-start)!
Why did you create the Start Your Story Workshop?
Because I believe in you! I believe every story matters, and some just need a boost up over the fence to get going. I've had people believe in me and give me that boost—now I want to give it to you. Telling our stories is about community, and I want to invite you to be part of mine through this workshop. There's no reason to do this alone.
What if I've already started my story?
That's great! Come get some new direction or affirmation that you're on the right track. Words and chapters can easily be moved around to fit a more effective structure for serving your target reader. I've done this with my own books!
Okay, I've convinced. How do I get in?
I'm so glad you asked! Place your hand over your heart and repeat after me:

"I, [say your name], do solemnly promise to myself to show up for this workshop, not just in body and mind, but with hope, belief, and willingness to do something good for me so that I can make this story the best that it can be for the world. If I can't find the hope and belief I need, I will borrow it from Marcy until I have my own. If I can't find the willingness I need, I will show up anyway because I promised myself I would. And I keep my promises. I deserve this chance."
