Writing can be lonely. But it doesn’t always have to be. Come write with us today, Friday, at 1 PM Central! .

Nothing is more powerful than a group of people working creatively together.

Here’s what people said about recent Write-Ins:

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.

Opening/Invitation

Finally on my way to yes

I bump into

all the places

where I said no

to my life

all the untended wounds

the red and purple scars

those hieroglyphs of pain

carved into my skin, my bones,

those coded messages

that send me down

the wrong street

again and again

where I find them

the old wounds

the old misdirections

and I lift them

one by one

close to my heart

and I say

holy holy
