✨Your Free Ticket to the Speculative Fiction Writers Conference!

If you are reading this, you likely have a story you want to write. Maybe you've been wrestling with it for months . . . or even years . . . rewriting the same scenes again and again and questioning whether you're good enough, or if this book will ever become the story you know it's meant to be.

This is why I want you to know, I have your free ticket to WorldShift: The Speculative Fiction Writers' Conference--where I'll be teaching a class alongside a lineup of incredible authors, editors, agents, book coaches, and publishing experts. 

We are coming together for six days to help writers strengthen their craft, gain clarity, and move their novels closer to completion.

WorldShift is a 6-day online event happening August 17–22, 2026.

...plus 40+ other experts sharing practical strategies to help you write stronger stories, navigate the publishing industry, and make meaningful progress on your novel.

Whether you're writing fantasy, sci-fi, horror, dystopian fiction, magical realism, or something entirely your own, you'll be surrounded by writers who understand the unique challenges of creating unforgettable stories.

And truth be told, even if your novel isn't speculative, these sessions are packed with insights on craft, storytelling, character development, and publishing that apply to every genre.

Your free ticket gives you 24-hour access to each presentation as it airs during the conference. But with so many sessions, chances are you won't be able to watch every talk before it disappears.

That's why we also have the WorldShift All Access Pass.
