My full monthly newsletter will be going out next week, but in honor of Folklore February, I wanted to share this workshop I have coming up next week.

Join me next Wednesday, February 26, at 6:30PM CST for Reconnecting to the Body Through Fairy Tales hosted by Abode Press🧡

Fairytales, fables, myths, and traditional stories across cultures offer opportunities to explore our relationships with our bodies and the stories that we tell about them. ✨

In this affordable virtual workshop, participants will be invited to engage in a variety of readings of creative nonfiction, poetry, speculative and dark fiction, and more that connect us to a deeper knowledge of ourselves. Attendees will work through a series of discussions and generative writing activities to help them write the stories of their bodies through the lens of traditional stories. 📖

This workshop is open genre and is open to new and experienced writers 18+.

Tickets are Pay-What-You-Want with the minimum set to $25 and $10 for Writers In Need. All proceeds go towards paying Abode presenters and helping the press pay for operational expenses. Register here to reserve your spot!

I’ll check in next week with my full newsletter and all of the normal resources, including prompts and readings from this workshop! Comment if you have any questions or reading recommendations!
