Did you know your personality type directly shapes the way you write — and that writing against your natural wiring could be the very thing keeping you stuck? In this in-person talk, Maddison walks you through the Bird Writing Personality Framework — a powerful tool used with her coaching clients — to help you identify your own writing personality type and understand why you write the way you do.

You'll discover whether you're a detail-loving Owl, a big-picture Eagle, a story-feeling Dove, or a spotlight-loving Peacock — and what that means for your process, your planning style, and your productivity at the desk.

Stay for the hands-on workshop immediately following, where you'll put the framework into action and leave with personalised, practical strategies you can use the very next time you sit down to write.

This event is hosted by the Gold Coast Writers' Association.

Did you know that the way your brain naturally processes the world has a direct impact on how you write? In this free masterclass we explore the four NLP modalities — Visual, Auditory, Kinaesthetic, and Auditory Digital — and what each one means for the way you naturally create, think, and tell stories. You'll discover your own dominant modality and walk away with practical insights into the writing approach that works best for your unique wiring.

VIP session immediately following takes a deeper dive into each modality in action, including a live Q&A with Maddison.
