Good evening, !

It's almost time for #FreeWrite Friday! And the next fall Mini Writing Retreat is December 1st! Have you signed up? 

There are so many distractions to keep us from our writing ! 

Which ones pull you away?

👕 laundry 

🍽️ dishes

😱 racing thoughts 

💻 other work

🤖 feelings

🧹 chores 

🎇 shiny things!

[  ]                      (what distracts you?)

How do we get past our distractions? One of the very best strategies is to sit down and patiently begin. Set a timer and keep at it. Put your fingers to the keys or pen to paper! We hope tomorrow, you will pull up a chair to the Writing Table. It will be #FreeWrite Friday. And we will be here for you!

Do you need a writing prompt to get you started? We will have one ready! Please join us tomorrow! 

Your Zoom link is below. 

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

Some of the magic of writing with us using pomodoros** 🍅 is that the timer and the group can help you keep your focus with positive peer accountability. When you practice POMs at the Writing Table, you also benefit from the energy of amazing, supportive, and creative writers! It helps you stay in your chair for the full hour. We've got strategies to share and seat for you at the Writing Table. 

Here's the link to Dr. Virginia Bartlett's new book with Routledge. She did much writing and editing at the Writing Table. The link will take you to pre-orders and endorsements for the book.

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
 

5. FreeWrite Fridays: Keep coming to the Writing Table on Fridays for no cost! Just sign up for weekly email reminders!
