MUSE is an experience, drawing from movement and writing, that takes us out of the analytical mind and into the creative, intuitive imagination. MUSE is a journey. It’s a place to write your stories, express your truths, listen as an art form, and empower your voice. There’s no way to do it wrong, and you know you’re doing it right because it feels honest, true.
This is not an academic writing workshop, focusing on critique; rather this is an in-person supportive circle for generative writing.
For this 2hr. circle, we will provide wine & mocktails, along with a nourishing vegan soup with Bike Bakery bread.
This is an intimate circle. Space is limited. Once I receive your email and payment, I will send you more details, including the location.
We want to feel more of who we are…shape our stories, and empower our voices.
Writing offers a space, “a certain breathing room for spirit” (John Updike). Together, we create a supportive container to write, breathe, and share. When we know who we are, more of what we want, we get to choose where to wander.
When we listen to our MUSE, we follow the pulse of inspiration to create. We are stronger. And softer. More connected. More empowered to live our feminine values in the world. We need it. The world needs it.
I’m excited to write with you and share this nourishing, empowering experience.
Personal transformation happens in layers. It’s not a one-and-done process.
Throughout the year, we will explore 12 Themes that give us greater understanding of our world and our own place within it–not as passive witnesses but as active creators. Reading stories teaches us about the world; writing our own stories teaches us about ourselves.
Examples of themes: Arrivals & Departures, Softening, Harmony & Dissonance, Our Real Names, Foundations, Deep Listening, Voice Activation, Dissolving Writer’s Block, Body as Ally, Self-Intimacy, etc.
