I changed my mind (second chance at $30 ends tomorrow)


Hey ,

I changed my mind.

This isn’t a sleazy marketing tactic, I really just changed my mind (and you’ll see this change reflected in future workshops). I said I was changing the price of the workshop on workshop day, but I decided to give people who missed buying it a second chance.

I know how powerful social proof can be, and I wanted you to hear from some of the people who attended the live workshop, and see just how good it was.

My favorite part? Still the live critiques. There’s something so powerful about those, because they bring all of the technique and theory to life in practical application.

Here’s what happened in Tuesday’s workshop:

The transformations were immediate and real. Look at these before-and-after moments:

Before the workshop: “I wasn’t quite sure what Deep POV was.”

After: “I feel confident about my understanding of Deep POV. I was doing it but this workshop helped me better understand.” ~Loraine B.

Before: “Vague is the best way to describe it… I suspected that I was doing it, but knew even I was, I needed to learn more.”

After: “Educated and prepared to walk myself through recognizing it in or adding it to my writing.” ~Aki B.

And this one made my day:

“I, and my four pages of notes that are more highlighted than not, want to thank you for the incredible workshop yesterday. Already this morning, it has revolutionized my writing.” ~Aki B. Mosé

What attendees loved most:

“Angela is an amazing presenter and does such a great job educating in a comfortable and easy-to-connect-with way. My ‘aha’ moments started almost from the beginning of the session.” ~Wendee M.

“This class was informative and engaging, I feel like I learned things that will help me to better hook my readers.” ~Rhiannon F.

“I thought the zoom was great, and I really appreciate the use of examples. That helped me ‘see’ how to do this better than just hearing about it.” ~Melissa M.

“Really appreciated it, and loved the style. So much information, yet somehow, it was delivered in a ‘light’ way, if that makes sense. No overwhelm.” ~Susan S.

“It was super. Really clear and to the point, with practical tips. Now to implement some of them.” ~Helen J. Conway

The live critiques were magic

One attendee said: “I learned a lot from the live critique portion.”

Another: “I loved the live feedback on submitted stories.”

There’s something about watching a manuscript transform in real time that makes everything click. You see exactly how the techniques work, what to look for in your own writing, and how small changes create massive impact.

What you get when you purchase:

  • Complete 2.5-hour workshop replay with all 7 deep POV techniques
  • Live critique sessions where you see theory become practice
  • The Wikipedia Test - my signature framework for identifying weak deep POV
  • The 3-question reader test to assess your scenes
  • Concrete examples from multiple genres
  • Actionable takeaways you can use immediately
  • Lifetime access to the replay

Your second chance ends tomorrow (Friday, July 11th)

After that, the workshop goes to its regular price of $50.

But honestly? After seeing the transformations that happened in Tuesday’s session, I think this workshop is worth way more than $30.

One attendee told me it “revolutionized” their writing in just one morning.

Another said they feel “confident” about deep POV for the first time.

Multiple people mentioned having “aha moments” throughout the session.

That’s what I want for you too.

Because here’s what I know after 20+ years in publishing: the authors who master deep POV are the ones whose readers become raving fans.

They’re the ones who get reviews like “I couldn’t put it down” and “I felt like I was living in the story.”

They’re the ones who build loyal readerships that buy every book they write.

Get the Deep POV Workshop for $30 (ends tomorrow)

Keep Writing. You’ve got this. We’ve got this.

~Angela

P.S. I’m genuinely excited about this change in how I handle workshop pricing. It feels more generous and less pressure-y, which is exactly how I want to show up for you. Expect to see this approach in future workshops too.
