An Evening of Writing

Sunday, February 12, 2012

3 pm - 6 pm

As Gertrude Stein once said, "To write, is to write, is to write, is to write..." and write we will do... two full hours of it. This Meetups gives you an opportunity to WRITE surrounded by other women who are doing the same. There will be one short writing prompt at the beginning to get you in the zone, but then we hunker down for an afternoon of writing.

Any genre is acceptable, as we are not sharing our work. At end of the session we will allow time for participants to share information or pose questions to the group to seek support.

Everyone who attends must write. You can sit and write out a two hour shopping list, or do an incredibly long free write, but you must be writing. Anything other than each person writing will distract the group. It will be a small group of six - ten women, maybe less.

Come let's gather around the table to write. Refreshments will be served.

Ladies, when you RSVP are committing to attend the event.

Should you cancel your reservation at the last minute you are still expected to pay at the next Meetup, or you will not be able to attend future Meetups and your membership will be removed.

Please keep in mind that when you RSVP and then cancel within 48 hours of the event; it is difficult to fill the spot with another woman who may have wanted to attend, but now cannot because she made other plans.

Your cooperation is appreciated.

How cool is that! Thank you Ms Lujira. I am looking forward to writing again with you -- a seasoned, experienced and published author. Please don't forget to post the picture of the birds, that was also pretty cool. You have a quick eye.

This was a productive meetup for me and the ice cream was certainly an added boost!! I met another WOW woman who I am proud to know. The positive energy at this group feels so circulatory and reciprocated.

The break was a smashing success with Dr. Loni crushing chocolate for our sundaes. Energy flowed through the room as we sat, wrote and talked. It's experiential so words do not adequately describe the experience. Writing in a group setting without having to read is powerful. It allowed me to set some INTENTIONS and remember I am worthy of all my good. The time also allowed me to work out some thorny issues in my book. I say WOMEN COME OUT AND WRITE YOURSELF INTO A NEW, GLORIOUS AND FANTASTIC LIFE.

Organizer:

Does sharing your writing with others intimidate you?
Have you ever wanted to write -- anything?
Are you a kind supportive woman?
Do you like to make stuff?
Does fashion interest you?
Are you a good writer?
Do you like to write?
Are you creative?*

If you answered YES to any of the above questions, then this Meetup is for you!

Write On Woman - connecting to your inner strength through writing, is a collective of women who write. This is the social activity group of the formal Write On Woman Workshop. The purpose of this Meetup is to create opportunities to write in the company of other women in a fun and relaxed environment. At our Meetups participants will engage with a writing prompt to get our thoughts flowing. We write for short intervals and then reflect on what we wrote. Although we are serious about our writing, during the Meetups we will intentionally keep it “sorta” light and definitely fun. NO connecting to the core wound during these activities!

The BIG deal that everyone should know is that we do not share our writing! The focus of our meetings is to get each woman to write and to do so in an uninhabited fashion. Knowing that you might have to share what you write will automatically change the process and the written product that you produce. On the other-hand making friends and connections with WOW women outside of our formal Meetups is encouraged. If you meet a new friend who you would like to share with, the sharing can occur on your own terms. No one should every feel weary about attending a Meetup because you may have to share your work -- it will not happen. In our community everyone is creative and any literate woman who can write words on paper is considered a writer. What a powerful blessing!

Your host Dr. Loni, is a published author, artist, academician and creator of WOW - Write On Woman, part of her Write On Workshop Series for all ages and walks of life. She is also the founder and owner of Help Me Help My Child - www.HmHmC.com. HmHmC is a learning community of families committed to academic excellence for their children. Having taught and have been an administrator at every level of the educational system from her favorite Pre-K super challenging and engaged learners to doctoral students, she considers herself "semi-retired," while still addicted to learning and supporting others in the process of self-actualization and the creative process. She had mentored and supported women who write for over two decades. She loves to express herself through writing and finds great joy in creating a context for others to do the same. So JOIN US and let's get writing!

Clear PHOTOS are required to join and maintain your membership in the group.

* - As of October 2011, the Meetup has expanded to include other forms of creativity and the arts. We will still be focused primarily on the craft of writing, but will also dabble in other creative activities for those who are interested.
