Writing With

Writing With is an ongoing writers’ group for women who want to write with the questions to create their stories.

We’re not talking about publication or recognition. We’re giving ourselves the gift of writing our story, every day, to see what emerges. 

We each write a 15-minute story every day. When you want, you can share that story in our private Slack channel. We have all our conversations outside of our weekly Zoom on Slack, where friendships form and we invent inside jokes. Mostly, we support each other as writers and women. 

Each week, when we meet, we write together.

We also discuss a piece of writing by another curious woman.

And each week, one writer has the chance to share the piece that means the most to her. We listen, suggest, encourage, and nudge for more detail or honesty.

And so on, on and on, listening and learning to trust each other. Eventually, each woman works on multiple drafts of a single piece that means the most to her and brings it to completion. And then, the release of letting go. 

This group meets on Fridays at 11 am, Pacific time, until 1 pm.

When that group is filled, I’ll open another group at another time.
