Honoring Your Writing Process: A Workshop for Black women writers | 4-Week Online Writing Workshop
How do I get the words onto the page?
Writers have grappled with this question for centuries. To outline or not outline? Daily morning pages or late-night writing? Music or complete silence?
If you find it difficult to decide on which practice(s) to include in your writing process, you are in good company. You have a unique writing process; one that may change and evolve over the course of your writing career. Through interactive exercises, conversation, and critique, we’ll find it together.
Honoring Your Writing Process is designed for the new and emerging writer who is still discovering the craft and their process, as well as the more seasoned writer who occasionally struggles to understand and get the most out of her unique writing way.
