Getting Unstuck: Writing Through Murky Middles with Jordan Rosenfeld

Feeling stuck in the middle of your writing? Learn how to uncover what’s holding you back, work through resistance, and turn the murky middle into a source of renewed energy, discovery, and momentum.

Practical strategies to get unstuck, move through resistance, and regain momentum in your writing

Ideal for writers who feel stalled, blocked, or lost somewhere in the middle of a draft, project, or creative life.

Every writer knows the “murky middle”—that frustrating stretch where the excitement of beginning has faded, but the way forward isn’t yet clear. It can happen in the middle of a novel or memoir, a creative project, or even a creative life.

In this webinar, Jordan Rosenfeld will help you look beneath the surface of stuckness to understand what’s really holding you back. You’ll explore practical and creative strategies for working through resistance, restoring energy to your writing, and discovering what your project may be asking of you next.

Rather than treating the middle as something to escape, you’ll learn to see it as fertile creative territory—a place where uncertainty, frustration, and possibility can lead to new discoveries. You’ll leave with fresh eyes, renewed energy, and concrete ways to reclaim momentum.

Writers who feel stalled, blocked, or uncertain about where their work should go next

Fiction and memoir writers struggling with the “murky middle” of a draft

Writers who have lost momentum or enthusiasm for a creative project

Writers navigating a creative or life transition and looking for a way forward
