Eyes for the moments that matter
Learn to spot the small, true moments in your own life that quietly hold the heart of a story.
Join Patricia Bumpass for a free live workshop that helps you find the story seeds hiding in your everyday life — and a simple way to hold onto them before they slip away.

Save My Free Spot"I want to write, but I don't know what to write about." You have the desire to create, but the ideas do not seem to come.
Maybe you think you need a big plot, a dramatic event, or a fully formed concept before you can begin.
Meanwhile, the small details, questions, people, places, and moments that could spark a story keep passing by unnoticed.
You don't need a bigger imagination. You need a better way to notice what's already there.
In this free, live session, Patricia will guide you through a Story Seed Scan of your own life — the small, true moments that quietly hold the heart of a story.
You'll leave with practical exercises, creative prompts, and a simple four-step method for collecting and developing the ideas you find.
No perfect idea required. Just a willingness to look closer.
Learn to spot the small, true moments in your own life that quietly hold the heart of a story.
A simple habit for capturing story seeds the moment they appear, so they don't slip away.
A repeatable process for turning a small moment into material you can actually develop.
Trust that your life holds stories only you can tell — and the clarity to start telling them.
