July — Freedom, Independence, and Inheritance
Saturday Scribe is a weekly creative writing gathering for people who want dedicated time to write, sharpen their craft, and move their work forward in community. Writers of all levels and genres are welcome—film, poetry, prose, theater, and hybrid work.
In July, we focus on freedom, independence, and inheritance.
As the United States marks 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, we invite writers to explore one of storytelling's oldest questions: What does it mean to be free?
Throughout the month, we'll write scenes that examine agency, identity, responsibility, and legacy. We'll explore the choices our characters make, the systems they navigate, and the stories they inherit before deciding what they will carry forward and what they will leave behind.
Whether you're developing a screenplay, drafting a poem, writing a play, or revising your next chapter, these prompts are designed to help you explore the complexities of freedom through character and story.
Follow @SaturdayScribe on Instagram to view the weekly prompt ahead of time. You are welcome to write on the prompt or continue working on an existing project. Writing on the prompt is optional.
What to bring:
A pen and paper or notebook. Laptops are welcome. Come ready to write.
