Waiting for inspiration is also called procrastination. We all need a kick in the butt for our writing life.
Consider this poem by Jane Kenyon:
Not Writing by Jane Kenyon
A wasp rises to its papery
nest under the eaves
where it daubs
at the gray shape,
but seems unable
to enter its own house.
The Monday Night Creative Writing Workshop Series is the most popular and longest-running workshop I offer. Craft, technique, and prompts for fiction of all forms. So don't wait - connect with a community and improve your writing project and practice. Open to all forms of writing and all levels of experience. This doesn't mean that the workshop is only for people in the early part of their writing career. Many writers have begun book projects through the prompts in this series. Many writers have used this workshop as the accountability they need for the discipline to develop a project in process. We also talk about how to submit your work for publication, each week considering a call for submissions, including local and regional opportunities for writers.
Mondays from 6:30 to 8 pm. Since the workshop is hybrid, each week you can choose to meet in my living room with chocolate and tea, or zoom in from anywhere.
This series will fill up fast as I keep the size of the group intimate.6 sessions in this series A fun and generative workshop for all writers of poetry, fiction, short story, novel, and screen writing. Do you wish you wrote more? Want to feel a sense of community when you write? Want to start a book or finish a book?
