A Note From Julie Duffy...
Â
I started the StoryADay May challenge in 2010 out of frustration...I wanted to be writing but couldn't make myself do it alone.
Over the years, I've seen writers make a great start on new projects -- the challenge, a novel, a memoir -- only to get derailed by other people's needs, their own doubts, and lack of skills that they mistake for a lack of ability.
But I've also seen people blossom, grow beyond their own expectations, and fully embrace the identity and practice of 'writer'.
The difference?
Having a community to support them: coaching, accountability, prompts, and deadlinesÂ
Like you, I struggled to build a writing habit alone. That’s why I created StoryADay Superstars in 2018 — so you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.
When we write together, we succeed together. And I can’t wait to celebrate your wins with you.
Keep writing,

Writers Just Like You


Marta Pelrine-Bacon
I'd had some stories published, but I felt really on my own in the writing life.
Now I have a community who understands my writing and my goals. I have a place to celebrate wins and to sympathize with the confusion and frustration of trying to create the writing life I want.


Neha Mediratta
I was stuck in the morass of guilt and self-doubt because I was not able to finish longer pieces of fiction writing. Now I finish most pieces!
Writing a story a day has been very good practice to develop a positive orientation to writing endeavors, not to mention that it has led me to meet new people, be part of a community and find my writing feet again.


Anita G. Gorman
I was already writing and getting published.
I decided to try the Superstars to see if I could remain motivated and productive during the other ten months of the year!
I am more motivated to write and send out stories. I recently submitted a short-story collection--finally! I am also more motivated to revise novels that I have written. I also now have a website.


Robin Stein
Joining Superstars five months ago changed my writing life. I wake up in the morning excited. Not only am I writing more, I am writing with mindfulness and new skills I've learned at Superstars. Now I proudly tell people I am a WRITER.
Spend 6 months at your new favorite
writers' conference, workshop and retreat
Investing in Superstars means investing in your writing life.
Imagine where you could be in six months — writing more, finishing projects, and feeling confident in your creative journey.
Whichever path you choose, Superstars will keep you motivated, inspired, and writing.


C. H. Schoen
Before I found StoryADay I was not confident in what I was writing and I was not consistent.
It has been absolutely amazing to be part of the Superstars group and to have fellow writers at all different levels to talk to.
It has truly changed my life.


C. McCane
My writing life is more intentional now. I’ve begun to focus less on the faults in my writing and more on the purpose of my prose.
This has helped me jump from dreaming to writing with a plan.
Right now, there’s a lot of external forces that can dampen creativity. Joining Superstars is an engaging way to find motivation and camaraderie with fellow writers. I’ve been working mostly on flash fiction and blogging this summer, so you don’t need to be writing the next American novel to benefit from signing up.
