make time - march

Every Wednesday in March, 10-11am/EST

$100-200 sliding scale

brief meditations * generative prompts * optional sharing

In the spirit of morning pages as a practice, we’ll gather early each Wednesday of the month to write from a soft space still close to dream state, with little expectation and tremendous openness and hope. Each session includes a brief, grounding meditation, time to respond to the creative prompts, and optional sharing. We will not be workshopping or critiquing. Instead the focus is on generation and flow. Bring a notebook and warm beverage. 

**Payment of $200 or more includes the option for a 30-minute 1-1 conversation about your creative project(s), to be held during the workshop month.

  • suggested*:

    $100=pressured resources
    $150=balanced resources
    $200+=abundant resources

    If MAKE TIME sounds like what you need this month and you want to join but can’t pay in full, or at all, please include a brief message when you register. I offer accommodated prices and occasional comps to those facing financial hardship, especially returning participants, and those experiencing lived racism, transphobia, and other forms of systemic discrimination.

    *It’s up to you to determine where you fit on the sliding scale, given the uniqueness of your context. Some general guidelines:

    Pressured can mean that employment is uncertain and/or paying monthly bills is challenging.

    Balanced can mean that employment is fairly secure, monthly bills get reliably paid, and occasional small luxuries are possible.

    Abundant can mean that employment and/or finances are secure, savings and/or assets exist, and/or property is owned.

    These are not strict guidelines, and you best know your circumstances. Please pay what you can.

    Please also note that paying at the top of the sliding scale makes it easier for me to offer more discounted and comped slots to those who need.

hear what others love about make time

  • “I loved the flow of the class and all of the prompts. Felt very easy, generous and creative".”

  • “I felt like I always had multiple places to draw inspiration from. I liked that there was an overarching theme to each session, but it was ambiguous enough to be interpreted in whatever way felt best for me to write from.”

  • “I feel a complete ease and freedom with the prompts. Most prompts resonate and kick up cool shit inside of me I would never have accessed without them.”

  • “This was such an incredible experience. I loved the structure, the brevity of an hour, and the time slot. This was such a warm, calm, and inviting space to be a part of.”

  • “I loved these sessions, can't wait to sign up for another round!”

  • “I really admired--and felt helped by--the way every prompt built on or connected forward from the one before it, within each session. Across the hour I felt stretched in so many different directions yet also cohesively/holistically, which was pretty inspiring to experience.”

  • “I can no longer say ‘I didn't write this week,’ and that feels great!”

  • “It feels like freedom. I love this weekly time.”

  • “It has helped me with consistency a lot. I also find myself more inclined to write outside of class. My creative flow feels stronger and more present since starting MAKE time! I loved starting each session with a grounding exercise, it really brought me into the space and acted as a vehicle to move into my creative practice better.”

  • “I had never taken a writing workshop before and feel so lucky that this was my first. It helped me see certain habitual aspects of my writing/voice/subject matter more clearly, and it also helped grow my desire to try working a bit differently, simply to see what might happen. I feel excited to think expansively about what around me can constitute a prompt or a portal to new (for me) thoughts and new (for me) language, and to ground myself at my desk each morning with a bit of breathing work first.”

  • “MAKE time gave me a comfortable, welcoming space and time to be with myself. It can be a struggle to find that on my own, between external obligations and internal discomfort. I really enjoy starting with a somatic practice as I often need a push to center myself in my bodymind, and poetry is so much about FEELING, in all senses of the word. Opening that door allows the writing to come out.”

  • “It has breathed life back into my writing.”
