So much to ❤️ at Centrepiece Writing Studio

You know how it feels when you try on a jacket, or get a new 'do, or get in the driver's seat of a new car, and it just feels so...

YOU! 

You get a confident twinkle in your eye, maybe a little strut in your step - and you think to yourself: Yeah, this is me!

That's how I feel every time I visit my new website: www.centrepiecewriting.com!

This site is such an authentic reflection of who I am and the services I offer - I can't wait for you to check it out.

Yeah, this is me! 

 


For those of you who've been following my blog all along, you'll see a few familiar pieces from the archives, as well as a lot of new content, including a couple deep dives into my work, and a poem perfect for this time of year. Okay, it's a poem for mid-January, but February counts, especially in a pandemic!  

Huge props and a virtual high five to my interstellar web designer Marleen at Almostronaut for helping me realize my vision. She'll help you with all your graphic needs too. 

Now that my new site is live, I'll be winding down this blog, so make sure you sign up for my new list - Just the Right Words - to get fresh updates served straight to your inbox.

I'll send a reminder or two before I pack up just to make sure you've all transferred over correctly, but why wait?

Go check it out!

Then let's talk about how we can tell your story.  If you've got a wedding, funeral or retirement party coming up (Zoom counts!), I'll make sure you've got what you need to show up with confidence.





Hi - I'm Shannon, owner and lead writer at Centrepiece Writing Studio.  I love telling human stories that help us connect. I write speeches for all occasions, create engaging copy and love putting fictional characters in silly situations to see what they'll do. 

If you need a hand finding just the right words for your toast, eulogy or professional bio, I've got you covered. I'll help you tell your story.

Connect with me on Facebook and Instagram and make sure to stay in the know by signing up for email updates delivered fresh to your inbox.

"Follow your bliss, and the Universe will open doors where there were only walls."  - Joseph Campbell  Summer may be over, but I'm off to camp! Pretend you already knew I've been working on developing a video game for the last 18 months.  If you didn't know, it's probably because there hasn't been a lot to say until now. I'll fill you in below! The exciting news is I - along with a superstar crew of creative Bad Astronauts - have been hand-chosen by the fine folks at Xbox (yes that Xbox) to attend a five-month virtual Game Ca mp, where we'll be building a test version of our game! We start next week.

Minding My Own Business

There I was, minding my own business, when... There's nothing like crossing a major milestone to inspire navel-gazing deep reflection on how I'm contributing to the world. So I recently created a list of my best skills. Not just my best résumé skills ( works well with others , excellent communicator ) , but my best life skills. My best inherently-me skills. I brainstormed, sorted and sifted. At the end of it all, I decided I'm gonna keep my day job. (Surprise! ) How many epiphany stories start with the hero staying right where they are? As silly as it sometimes gets, I actually kinda like my day job (mostly) and I love the people I work with. I'm also gonna start my own business . (Double surprise!) Start super-small. Learn as I go. Trust my network to support me.  Grow my network. Keep it fun! And blog about Minding My Own Business . All in my spare time. Outside my comfort zone, yes. But inherently me. So...what is my own business?  I have som

"Often any decision, even the wrong decision, is better than no decision." - Ben Horowitz, businessman, author, blogger I honestly didn't think this was going to be such a hard decision.  Isn't blogging the digital equivalent of opening to a blank page and starting to write? But there are a lot of considerations for a new blogger.  For instance: Do you care how it looks?  (Me: of course! ). How much do want to pay for your blog? ( $0 to cheap ). Do you want to make money showing ads ( uh...maybe? ) CINNABON I LOVE YOU! Just sayin'... Do you have your heart set on an independent domain name, like IamAmaaaazing.com?  Or can you live with a sub-domain? like I-Am-Amaaaazing.blogspot.com? (ugh...so ugly, and will anyone even find me here? ) Do you know the first thing about coding or programming or hosting or SEO?*  ( nope ).  So here I am on Blogger. For free blogs, my top two choices were Wordpress.com (not to be confused with big sis
