Raise those Pens!

What is Community Writing?  

One long table 
Much paper
Many pens
A random group of "strangers" (Writers and Non Writers: you who love to write, want to try it, feel its calling, etc, of all backgrounds, genres, goals, experience) whom you've likely never met, whose words will blow your mind, open your heart, and replenish your sense of belonging, ease your longing, nourish your hungering human soul as you write side-by-side together
One theme
120 minutes
Two short writes/warm ups followed by one longer linger 
All writing/sharing, no talking,  just write it out, get it out, hear and be heard!  

Why Write OUT?

Feel better
Clear the apathy! Get unstuck! Clear suppressed emotions,  space inside your body to reclaim fresh energy
Share in the gifts of raw writing/sharing
Healing
Inspiring: new starts, entire pieces, and profound
Raw, awe, delight, validation, profound witnessing and gratitude for what you will hear/share

Remember this one? 
NEW! February Writing Cleanse/Write OUT: Confessions

Friday February 24, 2017
1:30-3p @ The Beach
A Writing Cleanse to remember... and forget! 

"Confessions"

Come clean as you write out your deepest burdens, baggage, quirks, tricks, surprises, unspokens, hard truths, or whatever else heeds the call to let that one fall from the tree! Free that fruit before it goes to seed!

"And what I really want to tell you..."

NEW! January Write OUT: Friday Writing Cleanse/Write Out: "Despair"  
  
"Hello Darkness My Old Friend...." While it doesn't always feel so good, it's inevitable, (and very human) this time of year to go dark, to despair, to go deeply inward and isolate. Come to the Beach and welcome your stories, truth, feelings, letters, and whatever else takes shape and calls for release on and off the page in safe, supportive, writing community.  

January 20, 2017 @ The Beach 1:30-3p (note this is the third, not fourth Friday)
