Writing is Not What You Think
You are so much more than you think
You empathize more than you think But sometimes you have to write to know and write to remember You have much more—endlessly more—to write about than you think. Writing is not your thoughts. Writing is not what you think. Writing is writing.
Writing is life. Writing is love.
Writing is so much more than you think.
Don’t believe me? Stop listening to your thoughts. Give yourself a break and let the writing do the talking.

Is your writing feeling a bit scattered? Have you lost sight of your writing intention? Wonder why you ever started writing in the first place? It may be time to reclaim your writing spark by remembering your authenticity and presence in the writing process. This single session class is a safe, creative, calming retreat from the ongoing demands of a fast-paced, chaotic lifestyle. Whether you are seasoned or new to writing, come experience the soothing simplicity of writing in the moment, breath-by-breath, word-by-word. We’ll sit. We’ll breathe. We’ll write. We’ll laugh. We’ll get enlightened. Then we’ll go back to our writing. You’ll receive handouts, resources, and inspiration to take into your writing (and non-writing) life. Readings will include Zen poets Basho, Thich Nhat Hanh, Jane Hirshfield, and others, plus Natalie Goldberg, Dinty Moore, Ram Dass, and more. $3.00 copy fee payable to the teaching artist.
