Did you know an hour of writing is waiting for you?
You just have to join today's silent write-in at 11:00 AM (EST)
Announcements:
Tonight is the monthly reading series! I hope to see you there. Details below!
The next virtual write-in is Wednesday , August 21 at 1:00 PM (EST) — open to all subscribers!
Hello dear memoir lovers,
In case you’re wondering, I never did get any pool weather last week. I’m back in the city now and starting to prepare for the end of my summer with the semester beginning in just about two weeks.
In some ways I’m looking forward to teaching a new composition class (through the lens of Fairy Tales and Re-tellings), but I know the all consuming months ahead of me I have to look forward to and I’m really trying to slow down these last weeks of freedom.
While I whittle away at my never ending to do list, reworking writing prompts and agonizing over my course calendar, I can’t help but feel pulled away from my own writing. That’s why I love these virtual write-ins so much, since they force me to be present in my own work.
Plus I get to be surprised on who might show up this time. I hope it’s you!
What we’ll do during our silent write-in:
Get into your favorite writing corner.
Grab a cup of coffee or tea and a notebook, laptop, tablet, typewriter or whatever you draft your writing on.
Meet on Zoom for approximately one hour.
Use my favorite method to give focus and structure to your writing.
Stay silent.
Work on whatever you like during the hour of writing—journaling, editing, chipping away at your WIP, drafting an angry email to your ex, writing fiction (who would know?), composing song lyrics, etc.
An optional prompt will be provided if you need something to help get the creative juices flowing.
