Julie never believed in writers' block—until she got it. Drawing on her own experience, and what she's learned from teaching and coaching writing students, she talks about what causes blocks, the different kinds of blocks, and some ways of getting around them.

Julie will help you identify what's keeping you from writing and learn some techniques to help. She will then open the floor up for discussion in a Q&A.
