Any project can be daunting at the start. Some projects are still daunting in the middle, especially when they have a lot of moving parts — or shifting scenes! So how do you make sure that your writing stays on track towards your goal? Figuring out a project management plan can set you up for success and can make even the biggest projects seem less unwieldy and intimidating. This workshop will walk you through the process of setting “SMART” goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound), “chunking out” your project into manageable pieces, setting a realistic timeline, and sustaining all of this work with the development of good habits. We’ll also look at some fantastic project management tools, both analog and digital, that you may choose to use in support of your project. Workshop attendees should be prepared to talk about a project they’re finding difficult to begin or one already in process that they need help organizing and managing. 

This hybrid workshop will be held in person at the Writers In Progress studio in Florence, MA, as well as online using Zoom.

Cost: $75
