Immersion24: Deep

Your seven-week circuit-breaking reset to wake you up, re-ignite your curiosity, remind you of your courage, and forge your commitment.

Join Dr Kathryn Heyman on a unique seven-week writing program to ignite your creative spark.

Wherever you are with a creative project – starting out, testing the waters, getting unstuck, returning after a pause, or simply wanting to recapture the joy, Immersion24: Deep will transform your creative life

The Deep Immersion program is for writers and creatives who want to reignite their creative passion.

You’ll be a member of a group of people committed re-igniting your curiosity, reminding yourself of your courage, and forging your commitment.

With a program of daily tools delivered to your inbox, Dr Kathryn Heyman will lead you through the techniques she's developed over the last two decades of working with writers at all stages of their creative lives, techniques designed to ignite your own creative vision.

"I set aside my anxiety (and strangely, guilt!) about focusing on the practice and prompts, rather than using my time to hit word count targets on a new novel... it helped me to rediscover my love of writing, and enabled me to reconnect with why I first put pen to paper - the joy - the release - the forgetting of self - the flow. It felt like the first time in a long time that I had reconnected with a missing part of me. The thinking, feeling writer. I'm very grateful that I committed to the programme and showed up. And I'm very grateful to you for so generously supporting us all in our creative endeavours ." - Hannah Richell, author of The Search Party

Here's how it works

For seven weeks you’ll meet online every Tuesday for ninety minutes with your fellow writers. There are two groups available: mornings from 10am - 11.30 am, or evenings from 7.30pm - 9.00pm Sydney time.

During these dynamic classes, Kathryn Heyman and her guests will guide you through new reflections, strategies and techniques carefully designed to get you deeply immersed in your creative project.

With structured guidance, you’ll set your intention for the week ahead and check in with the community of writers.

Every single day, throughout the program, you’ll receive a new daily lesson with inspirational tips, proven strategies and approaches as well as a unique writing prompt, all designed to help you deepen your creative practice.

If you're stuck and uncertain in your creative life, or if you need an inspiration top-up, Immersion24 will restore your flow.

“Kathryn Heyman is a revelatory teacher. I love her directness, her honesty, her clarity and her humour. There is always laughter, sometimes an epiphany — literally I feel like I’ve heard the slud and slide of pieces/words/stories falling into place. She is brilliant, and each time I have gone away with the confidence to know what to do.” - Miranda Doyle, A Book of Untruths (Faber)
