Hey! Next Weds, my friend Terri Trespicio, who founded and runs the New Rules Studio AKA “Studio” — like Peloton for writing — is hosting a special session with me for my Shrimpers. Originally, it was going to be just for those who’d joined Studio during a recent promotion. They’re still the ones who’ll get to read their work out loud for feedback*, guaranteed. But Terri and I decided it would be extra fun to open up the group to allll my Shrimpers, for free. So, whether you’re an OG member of Studio or have never heard of it (despite me talking about it ad nauseam), you’re invited! Shrimpers-Only Studio Writing Sesh We’ll write to a prompt for 20-ish minutes and make magic. You don’t have to be a “writer.” (Though you are, promise.) You just have to be willing to surprise yourself. You will. Sign up here to write with me, Terri, and your fellow Shrimpers. Let’s go! xoLaura PS - *That’s Gateless feedback, which is critic-free and judgment-free. Gateless Writing is a method created by my friend and book mentor, Suzanne Kingsbury, who’s an expert on creativity and brain science. Terri will tell you all about it. Love Shrimp Mail? Forward this to a friend so they can get in on the action and sign up below.
Thank you for reading and sharing, |

Hey! My friend and Shrimp Club alum Brenna McGowan’s masterclass on launching happens today! More below. I’m at the airport heading home from vacation, which is an oxymoron — because I’m so at home being on vacation. Why can’t I live this way, why? They say build a life you don’t need a vacation from, but what kind of life is that except for one where you’re already on vacation? That’s not to say I don’t love my work and my non-vacation life. I do, especially when a launch goes well and...
Hey — Earlier this year, I got an exciting message from Shrimp Club alum Brenna McGowan, who’s gearing up for her masterclass, “The New Launch Model for 2026” — where she’ll dish on what’s working now, and open doors to her Pre-Launch Plan Program. The news was about one of your fellow Shrimpers, Paddy Johnson: Of course I wanted the tea: How did the $300K compare to her previous income? And what did she do differently? I knew it had to do with pre-launching, obvi. Brenna had helped me with...
Hey Reader, I’m in Greece now, but my heart’s in NYC. Well, it’s in Greece, too. I wrote this from the airport lounge on Tuesday night, so no details of the trip to share but I wanted to send you my post about 9/11. It’s a light update of the blog post I wrote in 2011, when I couldn’t believe it had been ten years. Now, it’s an inconceivable quarter-century, and we’ve got a generation of grown-ass adults who weren’t even born yet. Maybe you’re one of them. I’ve been seeing memories of that...
