Most writers sit down with two goals: write what they know and write it well.
And yet these are the very habits that trap us.
In this energizing masterclass, author Allegra Huston shows you why trying to “download what’s in your head” leads to stiff, overthought prose — and what to do instead. By learning to write what you don’t know, you’ll unlock fresh connections, deeper emotions, and ideas you never would have reached through logic alone.
Allegra’s method has transformed the writing of hundreds of participants in her workshops, helping them create work that feels truer, looser, and far more original than anything they’ve written before.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- Why “writing what you know” limits creativity
- How letting go of “writing well” unlocks authentic voice
- Prompts that spark surprising ideas and emotional depth
- Techniques to bypass overthinking and self-consciousness
- Ways to cultivate curiosity and keep your writing alive
The session will finish with a live Q&A where you can bring your questions about freeing up your creative process.
If you’re stuck, overthinking, or longing for writing that feels alive again, this masterclass will help you rediscover your curiosity, loosen up your imagination, and find the story beneath the story.
