Embracing the Emotional Depth and Intuition During Cancer Season
Hey there, Wordmaker! And welcome to Cancer Season!
Symbolized by the crab, this season is all about emotional depth, intuition, and connection. If you're a Cancer, you know just how deeply you feel things, and this emotional richness spills over into your writing, creating stories that truly resonate with readers on a personal level. For the rest of us, this is the perfect time to embrace your intuitive side even more. Use this energy to dive into your characters' inner conflicts and craft complex plot twists. When an idea pops into your head out of nowhere and feels just right, that’s your intuition at work, helping you weave intricate plots and layered characters.
If you have tough topics to tackle in your narratives, this is the month you should get it done. Approach them with grace, use your inner strength, and allow yourself to explore life's complexities with resilience.
Connection and harmony are central themes this season. This translates to creating deep, emotional connections between your characters. Whether it's a romance blooming between two lovers or a strong bond within a family, your ability to understand and portray these relationships will shine. Cancer authors bring a nurturing energy to their craft, making their stories heartfelt and impactful.
When it comes to your process, let's not forget Cancer’s connection to the moon. The moon's phases resonate with your creative process, influencing how you approach writing. Embrace the rhythm of creativity—the quiet moments of reflection and the bursts of inspiration that come at just the right time.
If you're fully embracing Cancer energy this season, remember that this zodiac sign will bring a unique blend of emotion, intuition, and nurturing energy to the craft. Cancer writers leave a lasting impact on readers, crafting stories that touch both heart and soul. Keep channeling that beautiful, emotional energy into your writing, and watch your stories come alive.
Here’s how we can embrace the energy of Cancer Season:
Embrace Emotional Depth: Cancer season encourages you to delve deep into the emotional core of your characters and stories. Focus on creating narratives that resonate emotionally with your readers. Infuse your writing with sensitivity, empathy, and vulnerability to craft compelling romantic journeys.
Tap into Intuition: Trust your instincts and intuition when developing plots and character arcs. Cancer season enhances your ability to intuitively understand the emotional dynamics between your characters. Allow your inner voice to guide you in creating authentic and heartfelt interactions that capture the essence of true romance.
Nurture New Ideas: This is an ideal time to explore fresh ideas and themes in your romance writing. Cancer’s nurturing energy supports the growth of new story concepts and creative directions. Be open to experimenting with different narrative styles or exploring unconventional relationships that resonate with deep emotional truths.
Create Safe Spaces: Cancer season emphasizes the importance of safe and comforting environments. Consider how you can create settings within your stories that evoke a sense of security and intimacy. Showcasing supportive communities or cozy, familiar settings can enhance the emotional connection between your characters and readers.
Balance Emotion with Practicality: While focusing on emotional depth, also maintain a practical approach to your writing career. Cancer season encourages you to find a balance between creativity and business acumen. Set realistic goals, manage your time effectively, and ensure financial stability as you pursue your passion for romance writing.
Cultivate Self-Care: Take care of your own emotional well-being during this sensitive time. Writing deeply emotional scenes can be draining, so prioritize self-care practices that replenish your creative energy. Whether it’s journaling, meditation, or spending time in nature, nurturing yourself allows you to bring your best to your writing.
By aligning with Cancer season’s nurturing energy, romance authors can enrich their writing with deeper emotional resonance, intuitive storytelling, and a balanced approach to their craft and career. Embrace the themes of sensitivity, empathy, and security to create captivating romance narratives that touch the hearts of your readers.

Events:
We just wrapped up our most recent #20kin5Days Writing Challenge, and now we’re preparing to review the plans and goals we outlined at the beginning of the year and see what we’ve accomplished during the Plan-A-Thon on July 17th! Plot-A-Thon is scheduled for Aug 9th and the next #20kin5Days will be Sept.11- 15th! Mark your calendars!
Changes in the Wordmakers Writing Community
I don’t know if you heard, but some big changes are coming to Wordmakers!
Membership Pricing: The price of membership is decreasing from $24.99 to $9.99 per month! I want to make sure everyone can access the amazing resources and support without breaking the bank. Dropping the cost will hopefully encourage unpaid members to join and make it easier for new members to decide to write with us.
Trial Period: While I’m eliminating the free level for #20kin5Days, I’ll offer a free 30-day trial so new members can experience the magic before committing.
No more scheduled daily write-ins: We’ll be moving away from our daily scheduled write-ins. While we won’t have daily sessions anymore, we’ll still have our dedicated weekly write-ins every Wednesday at 11 AM EST and 7 PM EST. You can still create your own personal writing sessions by posting in “host a write-in” and connecting with fellow Wordmakers for informal write-ins. This flexibility allows you to find a routine that works best for you while still being part of our supportive community.
Marketing Mondays: Once a month, we'll dive into marketing and promo tactics to help you learn and implement new strategies for your writing career.
Wordmaker Wednesdays: Our beloved Wordmaker Wednesdays will continue with two sessions at 11 AM EST and 7 PM EST.
Quarterly Events: Planathon, Plotathon, and #20kin5Days will continue, bringing the community together for focused writing and planning sessions.
