Let's Write Together Today!
Another Free Virtual Write in Begins at 1:00 PM (EST)
If you’re in New York City, you know that yesterday gave the first glimpses of Fall and I cannot be more excited about it. I know that this is just a teaser, and that we are most likely going to pay for this beautiful weather in September with a massive heat wave, but I spent as much time outside as I could soaking up the cool temperatures.
I also got out this week for not just one but TWO reading events. I finally made the trek out to Brooklyn for the famous Franklin Park Reading Series where I heard former Must Love Memoir reader Hyeseung Song read again from Docile along with an amazing lineup.
I also caught up with my friends over at The Palace Reading Series last night for their monthly event. It can be a long subway ride to Brooklyn from the UWS but I am always so happy when I get myself out of my apartment to support other reading events and writers in the city.
If you didn’t know that either of these events were taking place, I suggest you follow
and subscribe to her Reading the City newsletter!Now that I’ve soaked up some creative energy in New York this week, I’m especially ready to sit down and get an hour of writing done today. And I hope you’ll join me! You’ll find all the information below.

What we’ll do at the 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.
Information for the Zoom is below.
I hope to see you there!
Meeting ID: 819 3545 3147
Passcode: 974131
And some more exciting news!
Hope and I have been putting together the very first Must Love Memoir Accountability Mini-Workshop, taking place on September 18 at 7:30 PM.
During the workshop we’ll take time to set personal writing goals, identify barriers and choose a tracking/reward system that will help keep you on top of your writing routine.
We will also open a Substack thread to members of the workshop to stay in touch and hold each other accountable. Stay tuned for more details on that coming up in the next few weeks!
oh this sounds so great. i wish i could make it. next one!
