SEPTEMBER 21 – NOVEMBER 8, 2026 (seven weeks, live online)
Life + Time is an intimate seven-week deep dive writing immersion led by me, author Beth Kempton, designed to lead you back to your essence, writing what only you can write. Created to celebrate fifteen years of my company Do What You Love, this brand new, potent and life-affirming experience will show you how to unlock your most important stories, and give you the confidence to leave a written imprint on the world. Specifically, it will also help you design and build a flourishing, joyful writing career, as you explore the many ways you can earn an income doing what you love.
The scope of this course is vast – we will explore deep time, seasonal time, clock time, imaginal time, philosophical time, this moment in time, and all that is possible in a human lifetime. We will dive into memory, play with our imaginations, and learn how to craft the kind of work that reaches in to the hearts of others and lingers there.
With Life+Time you can expect much more than a writing class. This is a new kind of personal and professional development, where you learn how to weave everything you love into a thriving writing career.
In addition to our weekly three-part teaching structure (Spilling > Shaping > Sharing) we also have SEVEN weekly two-hour Live Writing Circles to keep the words flowing. Life+Time also includes a structured approach to building a flourishing writing life, designed to help you envision and plan for multiple streams of writing-related income.
The carefully designed curriculum will help you fuse what you have experienced with what is relevant in the world right now, showing you how you can create work that is both timely and timeless, and which resonates deeply with an audience who are willing to pay for your words.
You will come away from Life + Time with a number of key pieces of long form writing, a renewed commitment to your creativity, and a clear vision for your writerly future.
What are you waiting for? Register now and ready yourself for the transformational experience that will be Life + Time.

How it works
The class is structured in such a way that it is potent and powerful without being overwhelming. Here’s how it works:
{LIFE} MONDAYS – We spill words from the heart without editing between brain and page
{TIME} WEDNESDAYS – We shape those words using a variety of editing techniques
{IMPACT} FRIDAYS – We share our words in order to practice bravery
In addition, we have WEEKLY TWO-HOUR LIVE WRITING CIRCLES and A STRUCTURED APPROACH TO BUILDING A FLOURISHING WRITING LIFE, built into the course, helping you envision and plan for multiple streams of writing-related income.
Note: Days and times of the live sessions will vary to accommodate as many time zones and schedules as possible. The timings of the lives will be announced at least a month in advance of the class, and if you cannot make a live you will be able to watch a replay.
WHAT DIFFERENCE WILL IT MAKE?
By the end of the seven-week live immersion you will:
- feel deeply connected to your writing path
- understand how writing fits into your life, and how life informs your writing
- have a clear view of the myriad income-generating opportunities available to writers today, and have identified a clear path forward for your own career
- be committed to making a difference with your words
- feel confident in growing your audience and charging for your writing
- be part of an intimate group of writers who will offer you accountability and community as you step fully into your writing life

TESTIMONIALS FROM GRADUATES OF PREVIOUS IMMERSIONS
This is a brand new class, but it is designed with a similar structure to my other immersions, INK+FLAME and RIVER OF WORDS. Here are a few words about those classes from previous graduates to give you a flavour of what you can expect.
FAQ
What is the difference between your three live writing immersions Life + Time, Ink + Flame and River of Words? Great question! All three are structured in a similar way, with an initial lesson and spilling invitation on the Monday, a further lesson and shaping (editing) exercise on the Wednesday, and then an invitation to share on the Friday. All three are deep dive writing immersions which can be taken in any order. Indeed, if you sign up for all three, you will be setting yourself up for an incredible year of writing. The main difference is the additional thread running through each class as follows:
- Life + Time (which will run live from September 2026) has a bonus thread focused on monetising your writing and building a sustainable, satisfying creative career
- Ink + Flame (which will run live from January 2026) has a bonus thread focused on growing your audience specifically for Substack (or your blog or other self-publishing channel)
- River of Words (which is self-paced and available anytime) has a bonus thread focused on platform building (i.e. building an audience for your writing, regardless of channel)
I am a beginner writer. Is this class for me? All are welcome, regardless of level. If you are at the beginning of your writing journey, you have the benefit of a clean slate and the opportunity to build exactly the kind of writing career you want. If you have some experience, you have a foundation to build on. Both are great. The class exercises will challenge and stretch you in the best of ways, whatever level of writing experience you have.
What if I cannot attend the live calls? Please don’t worry, the class is very flexible. All live writing circles are recorded and shared within 48 hours of the session so you can catch up in your own time. In addition to our weekly two-hour live writing circles, we have lessons released on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, but you don’t have to be online at a certain time to access these. You can just log in whenever suits you. We do have a weekly deadline of Friday for sharing one piece from that week, but this is simply a friendly guideline to encourage you to finish your work.
How much time will the class take? It is hard to say because it really depends on how much time and attention you can give it! If you are able to commit 4-6 hours a week you will see a significant shift in your writing.
Is there a dedicated community for this class? Yes, we have a private class community hosted on Facebook. Please note this is the only way to ask questions to Beth during the class. We cannot offer alternatives to anyone who chooses not to be on Facebook. Please note the community aspect of the class is encouraged but entirely optional, and the course content is delivered via our private website which does not require access to Facebook.
Can I pay in instalments? Yes, you are welcome to spread your investment in the class over several payments at no extra cost. To do this, instead of ‘Buy Now’, please click ‘Pay Deposit’ above.
Do you offer scholarships? Due to Beth’s hands-on involvement in this class, places are strictly limited so we are not able to offer any scholarships for Life+Time. However we do offer various classes and resources to make writing as accessible as possible. These are free to everyone, including the Winter Writing Sanctuary which you would be welcome to join.
How long will I have access to the classroom? If you register for the 2026 edition of Life + Time, you will have access to all the content until October 31, 2027, so you will have plenty of time to complete everything. (Please note we do not offer lifetime access for any of our classes.) The private class community for Life + Time will remain open indefinitely beyond the class (for as long as people are active in it).
If you have any other questions, or you aren’t sure if this class is the right fit for you, feel free to email [email protected].
