Esperance Creative

Esperance (es-per-uhns): the feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best

At Esperance Creative, our mission is to facilitate the development of professional and aspiring professional creatives including, but not limited to, writers of fiction in a boutique, non-corporatized environment, and to engage meaningfully with social issues related to literacy.

A note about pricing

Coming soon!

A closed Facebook community for current and former Esperance Creative clients to come together in a media agnostic space to collaborate, connect, and build community. So many creatives don’t have anyone in their corner, or they have one or two people only and don’t feel like they can rely on them for all the things they need. This will be like a collective group chat—friendly and supportive—but in a non-invasive space people can come to when it works for them.
