Cranky Guide Writing "Hour" March 2026!

Adding some Saturday options this month

Hello! Somehow a five-day trip to Baltimore completely obliterated my scheduling capabilities for the first 9 days of March. But I’m back, baby, and so is the Cranky Guide Writing Hour. To make up for lost time, I’m adding a few Saturday sessions at 9am CT/10 am ET to the Monday ones. My summer hours are also over and the Monday write-ins are now at 6:30 pm CT/7:30 pm ET. I’ll say, I didn’t particularly mind the late-shift of the first two months. A reminder that I’m less tired than I claim to be when 8pm rolls around and it’s probably an excuse to indulge in several hours of the Nick Lachey universe. This is why my career is stalling. I actually NEED to sacrifice some of that leisure time to the gods of writing.

The Cranky Guide Writing “Hour” is a 40-minute virtual write-in/co-working space for paid subscribers. You can hop on at any time within those 40 minutes. I do a little check-in for the first 5 minutes and then we debrief for the last 5, but for a whole 30 minutes we simply focus on whatever we need to do. It’s a perk for paid subscribers. If you want to join us, there’s no time like the present to upgrade :)

The March Cranky Guide Writing “Hour” is on Mondays at 6:30 pm CT/7:30 pm ET and on Saturdays at 9 am CT/10 am ET. The dates are:

  • Saturday, March 14

  • Monday, March 16

  • Saturday, March 21

  • Monday, March 23

  • Saturday, March 28

  • Monday, March 30

The zoom links are at the bottom of this post for easy access. Please note there’s a different one for Saturdays than for Mondays. There’s no need to register and I archived the previous RSVP form for the time being. If you need the reminder, make sure to add it to your calendar!
