We gather together in the days of deep mid-winter to rest, reflect, write, and dream. Expect a hearty warm welcome to be as you are, full permission to write cr@p, curious prompts, gentle movement and a cosy environment.
Rooted in the writing practice taught by writer, poet, painter and Buddhist scholar Natalie Goldberg. Here you have an invitation to unravel and rest our bodies and minds on the earth and page. Experimenting with different ways of writing away from the lines and margins, using different tools and botanical inks. To make space for yourself and tend the seeds that lie within you at this time of year. We will explore ways to begin, ways to craft, and ways to share our words, as much as we would like to.
“My daily writing had become a bit samey - all about stuff I had to do or how I was feeling. WRITE CLUB has injected some creativity and helped me think about why I want to write and how writing practise can support me in living a more present life, with more attention and wonder and everyday magic. It’s also lovely to have a writing community to meet with regularly."
— Suzanne - WRITE CLUB 2023
