Let's Write in Community

While everyone else seems to be celebrating the start of the "ber" months, those of us in LA are facing 100-degree temps! It’s been a hot and exhausting week, and I haven’t felt like moving much—but luckily, writing doesn’t require a lot of movement! I spent the weekend putting the final touches on my latest blog post and started drafting this newsletter.

If you’ve been following The Spark, you might remember that about a year ago, I mentioned my intention to start writing. And I did—but it’s been a slow process. Sitting down to write can be tough since I’m an extrovert, and working solo isn’t my natural mode. Fun fact—I love to write at church! I take my journal to multiple services, and the more I write, the more I find myself truly paying attention to what’s being said. I also thrive in our writers’ groups and the Project Accelerator. Even though I’m working on my own project, I don’t feel alone. Now that I’m down to one job, I’ve been able to write more often, usually in the mornings. I like the process, but I wish it would go a bit faster. 

The fact that I get so much work done during our writing groups is why I'm very excited to offer you time to work on your creative projects (writing or otherwise) at our upcoming Writing Retreat in October! While I may not get much writing done that weekend, I love creating an inspiring environment for you to thrive. This retreat is all about giving you the space and encouragement to focus on your craft, whether you’re a seasoned writer or just starting out.



Join us for a weekend where creativity and self-expression come to life. You’ll have dedicated time to work on your personal projects, participate in workshops, and engage with a supportive community of fellow creatives.

It's the perfect opportunity to recharge and make progress in your writing journey!
