Hello, -

What a wonderful time we had yesterday! I'm just writing today to thank you for attending. And if you missed our gathering, please find some prompts below. I hope they can help you with your writing at a point when 

your schedule allows.  

For those who wrote the first time, congratulations! Amazing!

For those who wrote building ideas, stories, and projects that you had already been working on, we are so proud of your efforts! 

If you are interested in individual coaching options, please explore the links below.  

If, you want to revisit the Five Prompts to help you continue expanding your writing? Here they are and may they open your heart to what you need to say…   

Prompt #1 — What idea or story or piece of wisdom has been rolling around in my head and in my heart for so long and I want to be sure I write about it someday? How can I go ahead and put words to it today?

Prompt #2 — What am I called to write? What is God or my higher power asking me to address with writing (and maybe speaking and preaching and presenting)?

Prompt #3 — When I think of my ancestors and a future generations, what do I need to write for their sake?

Prompt #4 — Where is my spirit feeling led today? What is most urgent in the world or in my heart that needs my attention and words?

Prompt #5 — Who do I most want to write for and why is it important to write for them? (It might be God, yourself, a beloved, a community, or anyone else; trust the Spirit and your heart to lead you.)

If you follow these prompts you will have some good writing to return to, to edit, and to revise for publication -- if that is your hope. You will also have answered important questions for yourself! 

A Few Follow-Up Questions

We want to know what you'd like to do next!

We are especially grateful for the vision and commitment of Dr. Charisse Gillett, president of Lexington Theological Seminary for dreaming with us about this event to support the writing habits of women of color. Please let us know how we can support you!

Warmly,
Eileen
