What a beautiful message to receive on my birthday. My weekly online creative writing workshops have been a bright light for me these past three months. I plan to continue hosting them every Sunday this summer.
Understanding the role of the college application essay is the first step toward writing one with punch.
Thrilled to announce that I am an instructor with Summerfuel Virtual helping high school students identify what aspects of their character they want to bring forth in their college essays.
Looking for support during the college admissions process? This online workshop is a tremendous way for students from all over the world to connect by sharing in each other’s experiences.

I’m also available for private and semi-private (if your student wants to buddy up with a friend!) coaching.
Contact me at kjfitzsimmons@gmail.com to set up your free 30-min consultation.
Listen to story swaps from our live shows on the No, YOU Tell It! podcast at noyoutellit.com (available on iTunes, AudioBoom, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts).
Grateful and thrilled to be awarded a scholarship for the May cohort of the Workshop Creator program run by Wavetable!
Transitioning my work online is a need as I struggle to regain my livelihood. However, I want to design engaging and openhearted virtual workshops that help high school students tell their stories for college application essays in an authentic voice.
Personal storytelling is essential right now as a way for students to connect by sharing in each other’s experiences.
Earlier this month, I set an intention to make my “online writing workshops and private coaching sessions as open and honest as my in-person offerings.”
Transitioning my monthly class at The Astoria Bookshop to a weekly online offering added a bright light to my Sundays. I’ve loved reconnecting with regulars and meeting new writers. We even added a second session to honor my goal by keeping class sizes small.
If you would like to join us at 3 or 5 pm today (2 spots left in each class!) or be added to my newsletter to receive info on future sessions, contact kjfitzsimmons@gmail.com.
SUPPORT The Astoria Bookshop every day by purchasing books through their Bookshop page or preordering titles/buying gift certificates directly at astoriabookshop.com.
Great first sessions for two new online creative writing workshops this past Sunday and Tuesday!
Workshops for adults will be held every Sunday. I’m limiting class size so that the session can be more interactive. Email me today at kjfitzsimmons@gmail.com for more information, to sign up, or be added to my newsletter to receive information about future sessions.
I was recently interviewed by the Queens Gazette and life has changed so much since then, the article reads like a time capsule. Click here to read the interview.
As mentioned in the interview, I am designing a series of online writing workshops.
