Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Who is this for?
A. Writers who want to complete an important or urgent writing project with grace-based accountability, celebrations, and training/interaction opportunities.


Q. What is it?
A. It's a virtual (100% online) 3-day focused writing retreat where writers crank out content to meet a deadline or commitment. You'll have eight 90 minute solo work segments with accountability/celebration check-ins and 15-minute, high-intensity training segments (with multi-published authors) in between.


Q. How to: Registration, Login, Find Live Sessions, Find Your Schedule, Find the Replays, Request New Password.                                                             A. Screenshare tutorial here: https://youtu.be/R8le4XpRroQ


Q. I can't see how to pay for the Full Access Pass.​
​​A. HeySummit is designed differently at the purchase page. Instead of the NEXT button being at the BOTTOM (where we're used to seeing it), the NEXT button is at the top right. Hope this helps! 


Q. I'm a speaker. How do I find my affiliate link?                                                                                                                                                                                                  A. Login using the same email address from which you're receiving all your summit appearance details. Sign in as a Speaker, Partner or Organizer. If you haven't set a password yet, click on "Forgot Password" and it will send you a "reset" link. Once inside, select "Affiliate" and your link will be at the middle-top right. Use this when sharing about the summit. Also, if you want to see what the attendees see (and set-up your personalized summit session-attendance schedule), register AGAIN, using the same email, but as an attendee. Thanks!


Q. I'm getting a 401 Error Message.
A. Please clear your cache and cookies. If using a VPN, disconnect that and try again.

Q. What if I want to watch something I can't catch LIVE?
A. Upgrade for access.
