It was a joy to have Suzanne McConnell in the Winter cohort of our 6-Week Intensive — she’s a writer who studied under Kurt Vonnegut at the Iowa Writers' Workshop and wrote the book (literally) on his approach to craft. See PITY THE READER: ON WRITING WITH STYLE.

We worked with her on strategies and language to promote her forthcoming short story collection, IF YOU THINK YOUR HEART CAN TAKE IT — it’s realistic, surrealistic, funny, and unsparing, sometimes all at once. Keep your eyes peeled for it at your local indie this summer!

Sarah Stone, a recent alum of our 6-Month Strategy and Support program, is a brilliant and original writer, AND one of the most generous literary citizens we know! We’ve been blown away by the way she champions other authors with insight and care.

Sarah’s excellent forthcoming book, MARRIAGE TO THE SEA (Four Ways), explores the joys and dangers of family intimacy and impulsive relationships (both straight and q***r) while navigating the eco-crisis, political upheaval, and the mysterious afterlife. Book Publicity School Director Emma McGlashen described MARRIAGE TO THE SEA as “urgent, compassionate, and quick-witted; a perfect encapsulation of the anxieties of trying to be capital-G Good in a capital-B Bad time.”

Every author has heard the horror story — and far too many have lived it: reading to two people in a bookstore. It doesn't have to go that way. Here are our tips for packing the house at your next event.

We loved working with Sonia in the lead-up to publication of her novel GIRL’S GIRL, billed as "a sundrenched and dewy snapshot of modern girl culture set in the blaze of one suburban Midwest summer." She brought so much energy and support for her fellow authors to the cohort, and it was great to see her apply BPS strategies to the promotion of her book — not to mention her Poem of the Week newsletter, which is a true inbox delight!

Authors are told to get “visible” online, go “viral,” become a micro influencer on every possible social media platform—and end up flailing from one profile to another with no traction. They often spend hours writing posts, shooting and re-shooting videos on their phone, testing out weeks of expensive boosted posts and ads… most of which is not at all helpful!

Jill Swenson joined our 6-Week Intensive for support ahead of the publication of THE LAND OF EVERLASTING SKY (SheWrites Press, June 2026). In the book, she explores her family's generations-long, complicated connection to the land of northern Minnesota—dating back to her great-grandfather, a homesteader who arrived in 1903—and to the Ojibwe people who live there. It was wonderful having Jill in the group. She absorbed our suggestions and ideas and continues to leverage them with creativity and dedication. We're so excited to see this book come out!
