“Lorin has created such a unique program in the Inner Circle. Not only are there great webinars to help me improve all areas of my craft but I love the personal one-on-ones with Lorin for brainstorming and revision help. One of my favorite parts of the program is the camaraderie with other writers who are struggling with similar issues. I deeply appreciate having a community and not feeling as if I’m doing this all alone. Belonging to the Inner Circle has upped my writing skill and gives me accountability so I actually get the work done! ”

Writers at every level will find the community a safe and trusted space for creativity, motivation, and questions.
