Big writing projects call for an organizational structure and efficient workflows to keep the work on track. This class will share what Rhonda wishes someone had taught her when she first started writing books and presenting historical research. These are the best practices learned along the way. We will begin with the files and infrastructure Rhonda now sets up at the start of every project and the tools she uses every day. New AI technologies and automations now make quick work of parts that used to be tedious without sacrificing your unique voice and perspective. Learn state-of-the-art tools that will save time without breaking the budget or requiring a ridiculous learning curve. Note: This class does not focus on photo management or genealogy research but emphasizes writing historical fiction, memoirs, and other big projects.

This was awesome! I’m delivering a class next year in our University of the 3rd Age group on Writing Your Family History in Melbourne Australia. I have a section on organisation and your approach broadened my thinking for what that actually means beyond organising files. It also means organising yourself! You brought back so many concepts I used when I was writing and will incorporate many in the new class. Thanks!!!
Excellent presentation filled with enthusiasm. Thank you, now it is off to put into practice your advice.
Rhonda Lauritzen always gives us such good tips!
Rhonda’s enthusiasm is outstanding. Her experiences, knowledge and hints are spot on. Her emphasis on setting a ‘writing time’ plus the need to organize continues to ‘hit home.’ The sharing of the ‘hows and whys’ is invaluable!
Outstanding. Both informative and inspiring!
Rhonda’s presentation was excellent! I loved seeing how she organizes a project, and her tips for using various tools were so helpful!
Rhonda radiates her enthusiasm for her topic!
She is way ahead of me. Time for me to step back, Block the time and go through my files. Thank you.
