Join the Write-In Today!
Nothing is more powerful than a group of people working creatively together.
Here’s what people said about our last Write-In:
I'm so happy to be a part of this wonderful, warm community.
Today was so wonderful-- the anticipation, the planning in my head of what I would do, the quiet support to do it. Thank you.
Thank you so very much for creating this space! Continue to understand and apply the power of concrete, specific examples
This was so lovely. Thank you Jeannine and Billie and everyone present. It was really a sweet space to be held.
Thank you for that time to focus. I wrote for the entire hour.
You do not need to be following along in the Visceral Self to join a co-write. All topics/projects welcome—we’re writing silently!
Co-writes are for paid members of Writing in the Dark—you can manage or upgrade your subscription anytime.
So, What’s a Group Write-In?
It’s simple. We meet in the Zoom room and write together for an hour.
Why Not Just Write Alone, Though?
Because there’s more magic in the collective.
Things to know:
We’ll open with a poem/excerpt (I’ll read one out loud) to set a mood
A dedicated post will be linked in the chat—like this one from our last Write-In—so you can introduce yourself in the comments and circle back later to share work, because it won’t disappear like the Zoom chat
I’ll offer a simple writing exercise for those who want one
Writer are welcome to work on their own projects or free write—whatever works
Everyone will be muted
Cameras on or off, your choice
Write, write, write
Zoom will close at 9:30 AM (course you can log off sooner if you need to)
Starting at 9:20 participants will be invited to share a snippet of something that sparked from the writing session in the comments on a dedicated post linked in the Zoom chat (again, like this one from our last Write-In). It can feel great to share what we accomplished, including a sentence or two from the work (totally optional, but it’s fun for some of us to celebrate any small gain for our effort!)
Co-writes are for paid members of Writing in the Dark—you can manage or upgrade your subscription anytime.
Have fun! Alas, I am busy with meetings
I'm on a cruise ship with my mother right now (let's be kind and call it a mixed bag). I will be with you in spirit, envious of the charged but comforting milieu.
May inspiration approach your stillnesses like a gentle animal coaxed in from the cold!
