“The 2026 Gemini virtual retreat brought a fresh and creative perspective to writing. Julie and Eva anchored our writing journey discussions, while the guest presenters guided us through a writing-themed tarot card reading of our group and helped us consider the money-making side of writing. I was immediately inspired to develop my writer’s vision board and tackle my writing projects.”

Build Your Own Craft Kit
Three craft fixes, chosen by you, for the book you’re already writing.
Save $96Pick any 3$195$99
$33 per workshop today only (regularly $65), up to 3 per person. Three for $99.
Every draft gets stuck somewhere different. Maybe it’s your opening. Maybe your characters feel flat. Maybe you’ve lost your groove altogether. The Craft Kit lets you pick the three recorded workshops your book needs right now, then watch them anytime, as often as you like. Today, each one is $33 instead of $65, up to three per person, so three are $99 instead of $195.
Pick any 3 of these 6
- Crafting Character Depth: Creating Emotional Wounds in Fiction: characters with real motivation
- The First Chapter Fix: What Editors Look For on Page One: hook readers from the first line
- Getting Your Writing Groove Back: a routine that survives real life
- So You Want to Write a Screenplay? How a script differs from a novel, and how to see your story on screen
- So You Want to Write a Series? Characters, threads, and settings that carry across books
- Digging Deeper into POV: closer narrative distance and real character interiority
Can’t decide? We each have a favorite. Julie would start with The First Chapter Fix, because the first chapter sets everything up and keeps readers turning the page. Eva would start with Creating Emotional Wounds, because characters without deep wounds can’t carry a whole book. Pick three different workshops below. Each one unlocks in your course account as soon as you check out.
“This lesson was wonderful! Thank you for taking so much useful information and breaking it down into manageable chunks. I look forward to reviewing my chapter in layers as I use what I’ve learned. Thank you!”

“My Silver Membership with Gemini Writer’s Studio has boosted my creativity and writing in multiple ways. I love the weekly accountability sessions when we set goals for the coming week and talk about what we did WRITE in the last week. The encouragement of the group keeps me motivated throughout the week when distractions call and I’m (sometimes) able to resist.”
