The Gateless Method of writing will open you up and allow you to express yourself on the page in ways you didn’t even know were possible! Fiction, non-fiction, memoir, poetry, spoken word - whatever comes out is as perfect as are you. We share our work in a safe space, a container to hold you with only praise, love, support, and encouragement. No judgment, criticism, or workshopping. We are here to freely give and receive the words as they flow from our hearts and minds.
In these sessions, I will present a theme and lead us through a centering meditation to create the mindset for fearless creative writing. Then I will introduce a prompt and we will write for at least 20 minutes. Those who wish to will share their work and the group will listen, and respond with positive feedback highlighting what worked, what we loved, what sparked excitement and interest. I will guide you in the Gateless Method of feedback, which will leave you inspired to keep creating and writing.
Each week will be a new theme that you can use to enhance an ongoing project, ignite memories, or just keep in the background as a muse. Your desire to write is so personal - I am here to hold the space, offer encouragement, and help you discover new paths to healing and exploring our inner workings through writing. All levels of writers are welcome! Journal scribblers, published authors, and those who haven’t written in a notebook since elementary school - come!
