A small shift in perspective is often all it takes to open ourselves to new possibilities.

Intentionally experimenting with shift in our writing practices can breathe new life into stories that feel stuck, elevate existing pieces, and help us see the shape our work truly wants to take.

In this storytelling workshop, you can expect:

  • a discussion of shift in story

  • a mindful exercise to welcome in shift

  • plenty of writing time

  • space to share

This workshop is great for: workshoping a written piece and experimenting with technique; useful for writers of all experience, styles, and genres.

Bring some writing to this workshop (either a piece you’ve been working on or something that lives in your head and hasn’t found its way to paper yet) and prepare to play with shift!

Join us. Let’s experiment.
