Mini Memoirs

The pace of this group is gentle but steady, and you'll be invited to write in short bursts without editing or second-guessing the words as you go. Whether you're seeking to generate material for an essay or book, for your own personal discoveries, or both, you will be received and your work will be read with support and encouragement. Expect an amazing collection of individuals, with utterly unique voices and stories.

Getting Words on the Page

This asynchronous, self-paced eCourse is at once practical, deeply human, and fun! You will be reminded, again and again, that showing up matters and that everything you write counts. Come back to the encouraging videos and practical exercises again and again to start, enliven, and sustain your writing practice.

Jewels on the Path - for Jewish Writers

The 12-week online writing intensive is for Jewish writers who wish to deepen their creative process in a community where your Jewish self can be as present as you wish. It’s highly participatory, asynchronous, and takes place in a private Facebook group. Each week follows three touch points: kavanah (intention) setting on Mondays, dvarim (words), or sharing new work on Wednesdays, and tachshitim (jewels), or self-reflection on Fridays.

Procrastination, shmocrastination. Put down the struggle and find the accountability, encouragement, and support your writing life deserves.

Dates: April 15 - July 5, 2024

Ebb & Flow: A School Year of Writing Practice

Magical things emerge when we make time to sit down to write. Even more magical things happen when we get to share the benefits of our process in good company. And something deeply meaningful, something like true belonging, comes from doing these things with a group of people over time. This special group is a rare opportunity to practice writing in community – and to feed and deepen your practice over time.
