Hello, !

Here's a little behind-the-scenes writing strategy for you! When I write a book it often lives in some form on the back of a door or on a posterboard for a long time while I write life into it. I put the main point or question of the chapter on a sticky note (so I can move it around) and I add other key material about each chapter on larger sticky notes. Each chapter lives in miniature on the poster board. 

At the Writing Table on #FreeWrite Fridays (and all the other weekdays), we share cool tricks of the trade like this one. Strategies are best when shared. We all need all the help we can get 

By the way, the picture below is my current book-in-progress Baptized & Ordained. You can learn more about it and join a community of learners around the topics of the book - just read below! Today (Oct. 5) is the final day to join us!

I think you will love writing alongside this amazing, supportive and energizing community! We've got strategies to share and space for you at the Writing Table. 

Your Zoom link is below. 

Times: 9a ET / 8a CT / 7a MT / 6a PT

*REMINDER* 

Tonight is the deadline 

for registration October 5 

Because I've been on the road speaking, preaching, and meeting many lovely ministers and church leaders, we decided to extend the registration deadline for Baptized & Ordained. We only plan to do this once. So if you were thinking about it, now is your chance to sign up. It's not too late! Join by October 5.

Read more, watch the video (below), and decide if this is an experience you want and need to support your vocation of ministry.  

Who else do I love showing up for? Clergywomen and lgbtiqa+ ministers who still have to spend so much energy in so many places to even be able to show up and have space to be seen and heard. If you love this work, then read on.

I hope you will become part of our new learning community and think and learn with me. Baptized and Ordained is my latest book-in-progress and also a community of people who care about how ministry and church remain challenging and are also being changed by leadership from women and lgbtiqa+ clergy over the last 60 years. 

I want to connect with you and all the people who care about women and lgbitqa+ folx who are baptized and called to ministry. It's a year-long experience! Join us! 

Register by October 1! 
(and you'll also get a BONUS gift!)

Watch this short video to learn more. Then visit the Baptized & Ordained registration page. 

How does the Writing Table work? 

Writing is solitary work, but it is best done in community. Ironic, but true. Over the last three years, I've been cultivating a community of writers who join me at the Writing Table most mornings. We are building good writing habits. Not binging or rushing, but doing our work patiently and with support. 

The Writing Table is a place for you! If you join for a year, it is less than $3 per week.

Coaching and Writing Table Options 

I started coaching writers 10 years ago. Maybe you are in a time when you are ready for personalized coaching for your project? Here are some options for you to work with me.

1. Coaching + Writing Table: Sessions of individual coaching to help you with planning and carrying out your writing. Every coaching session includes 3 months of membership at the Writing Table.

2. Developmental Coaching + Writing Table: Sessions of individual coaching to support your writing habits and also reading and feedback on your current writing project. Every session includes three (3) months of membership at the Writing Table.

3. Writing Table Only Annual Membership: Keep building your habits of consistent writing for the entire year. Twelve months of space at the writing Table most every weekday for less than 60 cents per day. An amazing way to support your habit of writing!

4. Writing Table for a Month. Maybe you just have one project or you would rather try out pay by the month. What would it be like to give a solid hour a day to your writing practice? For just $20 you can try it and see. What is holding you back?

Just $20 per month or $150 for the year

The Story of How it Began

Starting in March 2020, I began offering a Writing Table for students, ministers, and professors. Lots of people needed to write during those early days of the pandemic, and yet everything was so exhausting and distracting. [read more]
