Use the phases of the moon to guide your writing so you can start, keep going, and finish what you’ve started.

FOR YOU, WRITER. ✨

About The Nocturne.

The Nocturne is where you come to write…and keep writing.

We use the phases of the moon as a simple rhythm to help you stay with the writing.

Not to overthink it.
Not to make it perfect.
Just to keep going.

Because that’s what most writers need. Wouldn’t you agree?


What You’ll Get

Each phase gives you a different way in.

You’ll find:

  • Writing prompts to help you start (or restart)

  • Encouragement to keep going when it gets hard or unclear

  • Practical advice to move through resistance, decisions, and the middle of the work

Nothing complicated.

Just what you need to stay on the page even when it feels like torture.


How It Works

You’ll get a bi-weekly email that talks about writing and the phases of the moon.

  • New Moon: start something

  • Full Moon: see what’s working

You don’t have to get it right.

You just have to come back to it.


Who It’s For

This is for you if:

  • You want to write but keep stopping

  • You have something to say but don’t always know how to say it

  • You’re working on a book, a Substack, or just trying to build a writing practice

  • You don’t need more ideas, you need a way to stay with one

If you’re here, you’re already closer than you think.


A Note from Me

I’ve worked with a lot of writers.

The ones who finish aren’t the most talented.

They’re the ones who stay.

The Nocturne is a place to come back to, again and again, so you don’t lose the thread.

You don’t need to feel ready.
You don’t need to feel clear.

You can just start.

And keep going.

I believe in you.

Get Started

Start with the current phase.
Write something small.

Then come back tomorrow.

If you find yourself wanting more support, more structure, more guidance while you’re in the middle of the work, you might also like my writing communty The Margin Notes.

That’s where we go deeper into the writing itself, and how to stay with it long enough to turn it into something real.
