Writing Circles Should Be Safe Spaces.
People often ask me how I got the courage to share my story with the world. I always answer, “By sharing my words as often and as honestly as I can.” Like everything else, bravery takes practice. Open Mic nights and Poetry Slams were one of the ways I practiced mine before my book came out, and I am so glad I did. During the pandemic, online spaces and workshops were how I kept my writing practice alive. What I learned was that it’s not actually about if you can be brave or not — it’s about if you can be curious.
I’ve created a few of my own workshops which are low-key, safe spaces for you to cut your teeth and share your words with people who will appreciate and admire you. It’s also a great way to get to know other writers while refining your craft. Come get curious in a safe and generative container. I made it just for you. ♥️
