ASUMH Workforce and Community Education

 Have you ever thought about writing a book—but didn’t know where to start or how to follow through?

This 9-week course is designed to help you move from scattered ideas to a completed rough draft in a supportive, structured environment. Whether you have a clear idea or just a sense that there’s something you want to say, this course will guide you step-by-step in getting it out of your head and onto paper.

Students will learn how to organize their thoughts using mind mapping, clarify their message and audience, and create a simple framework for their book. The focus is on building consistent writing habits while removing the pressure of perfection, so you can make real progress each week.

Each participant will create a personalized writing plan that fits their schedule, allowing for both flexibility and accountability.

Eight weeks are dedicated to writing your draft, with a final week focused on next steps—helping you understand what to do once your draft is complete.

By the end of the course, you will have a structured outline, a consistent writing routine, and a completed rough draft you can continue to build on.

*Students must bring a notebook or journal, pen/highlighter, computer or iPad. 

*No class will be held June 16th or August 4th

Instructor Bio

Christine Lunceford is an author, course creator, and educator who is passionate about helping others take ideas that have been sitting on their heart and finally get them onto paper.

After writing the rough draft of her first book in just two months, Christine developed a simple, structured approach to help others move past overthinking and perfectionism so they can actually finish what they start. She understands firsthand what it takes to write while balancing real-life responsibilities—and she also knows the importance of accountability. Christine did not complete her book alone, and she brings that same balance of encouragement and accountability into her teaching.

Christine creates a supportive environment where students are challenged to stretch at a pace that is both realistic and sustainable. She is known for helping individuals stay consistent, build confidence, and follow through on goals that often feel overwhelming at the start.

In addition to her writing work, Christine is the creator of the EmpowerYOU Wellness framework and is currently developing a self-paced book for her Food Freedom Method while researching future writing projects.

Her course focuses on guiding students through eight weeks of structured writing to complete a rough draft, followed by a final week dedicated to next steps—helping students understand what to do with their draft once it’s finished.
