Pop-Up Writers Workshops

It’s not theory, it’s not fluff — it’s a practical, roll-up-your-sleeves kind of workshop.

When I published my first book, I thought the hard part was over.

Spoiler: it wasn’t.

I’ve since published four books (through both hybrid and self-publishing), and I’ve got five more manuscripts in the works. Along the way, I’ve learned that writing is just one part of the process—editing, design, marketing, and connecting with your readers matter just as much.

I’m Michaela L. Carson—author, coach, and former communications/marketing professional with 20 years of experience. For the last 3 years, I’ve been coaching writers professionally, helping them avoid the pitfalls I stumbled into.

I created the Pop-Up Writers Workshop to give you exactly what you need to take the next step in a single, high-impact session.


  • Format: Each Teaching Block is followed by a Work Block—Learn, then apply.
  • Personal Support: Q&A and direct help while you work.
  • Real Progress: You won’t leave with just a “to-do” list; you’ll leave with a solid start and a plan that’s already in motion.

One Workshop. One Focus.

Current Workshop: Social Media Stewardship

Writing a book is one thing — marketing it is another. This 2.5-hour workshop helps you master the essentials of developing a social media strategy in a clear, hands-on way. We combine short lessons with guided work sessions so you can put ideas into action immediately.

What we cover:
✔ How to choose the right social media platforms to reach your audience
✔ The difference and value of post types
✔ How to use content types strategically
✔ How to stop posting randomly and start posting with intention

You’ll learn, apply what you learn in real time, and leave with clarity and a plan you can actually use.

Perfect for female Christian writers who want their
social media to support their calling—not drain it.

In-person sessions: $49 | Early Bird: $29
