Once again, Laurie Schley Senauke and I are leading this semi-perennial favorite retreat for women at Green Gulch Farm! Creating in community in the Wild Heart Writing style, we’ll discover and write about what we DON’T yet know.

Authentic, compelling writing comes from a place of emptiness. By simply showing up, listening, and writing what arises, we discover the ideas we need to bring to light. We calm the mind, then follow playful and provocative prompts to start our pens flowing. In timed exercises, we bypass our inner critics and write freely. Words appear. Memories surface. Tales emerge. We read them aloud and encourage one another to drop deeper and reach within.

During our days together, we’ll move as a community—dining together and lodging at the Octagonal Guest House. A willingness to be quiet and to play is all that is required; no writing experience needed. Bring pen and paper but not your laptop.

This retreat is trans- and non-binary-inclusive.
