About Event

​Commit to spending this hour with your creative voice.

​There's no pressure to create something magnificent. The purpose is to spend time with your inner voice, and get curious about what’s alive inside of you.

​Though this session centers on writing, it's really an hour for nurturing anyone with a creative practice. All are welcome, no matter the medium of preference or level of experience.

​The structure:

​I will provide a simple prompt and offer a brief guided meditation. We will write for 20 minutes straight, by hand, followed by community discussion.

​Set the scene:

  • ​I'll send a playlist you have the option to put on.

  • ​I suggest using an expensive pen and cheap paper, but use whatever is at your disposal.

  • ​Light a candle, brew some tea, wear the fuzzy socks or silky robe, whatever makes this feel a bit indulgent.

​On Resistance:

​There's a famous quote from the American poet, Robert Hass. "It's hell writing and it's hell not writing. The only tolerable state is having just written."

​Unfortunately, it feels true most of the time. We are in this space to make writing a pleasurable experience; to carve out a creative space we want to come back to again and again.

​Either way, we'll get you to the other side, to having just written.

​Please arrive promptly if you plan to attend.
