Embrace the Art of Slow Writing
The Slow Story Course is Here
Hi friends, I’m overjoyed to have more headspace again now that we have somewhere to live. My creative mind has come back to life and as well as getting on with my novel and short fiction writing, I am using all this lovely new creative energy to develop what I bring here to help us all be more mindful writers. Subscribers have been growing really rapidly over the past few months (thank you and welcome!) so I feel like you all want to be slower writers too, and I’m going to be bringing you more inspiration that can help you do that, while also connecting to other mindful souls.
Starting in June 2024 my paid supporters will get the brand new Slow Story Course, which is designed to get you writing a new draft of a short story over a three month period. You can bring an idea you already have or start something totally new from the prompts and exercises that will be provided.
There will be two course content posts a month where we can chat and share ideas that come from what we have read, plus share any snippets of writing too. The course content will be a mix of craft development lessons, short story readings, writing and reading exercises and prompts, and all are designed to get us digging deeper into the why of our writing and the story and characters we’re creating.
Ongoing, I will be designing and writing new mindful writing courses that will help us all to develop our craft, write with more joy and compassion, and go on a journey of self-discovery as we use our writing of fiction and creative non-fiction to uncover hidden insights, explore different perspectives, and gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and our craft.
I really hope you’ll join me.
With love,
Wonderful news that you are feeling settled, grounded, motivated and creative! Very much looking forward to your new Slow Story course. Thank you Amanda.
