Writing Together for Gun Reform

Let's come together for an hour of guided writing exercises designed to offer comfort while deepening craft. My intention for this time is to remind ourselves of the sustaining force of creativity while raising money to aid two organizations that are doing vital work.

Make yourself a cup of tea, find a place to settle in that feels good to you, and join me for a quiet hour of writing together. I'll give you a few prompts, we'll share some images or sentences in the chat, and then we'll leave (hopefully) more grounded and connected to ourselves.

In light of the recent gun violence in Buffalo and Uvalde, 100% of the proceeds will be split between Everytown and Sandy Hook Promise.
