Are you looking to increase your productivity? Do you want to write more words with like-minded, encouraging, positive authors?

Join us for a write-in! Our write-ins run every Wednesday morning from 9:00 AM CET to 12:00 AM CET hosted alternately by Brenda Arnold and Nutan Jäger.

Here’s an example of how the session might run. Depending on how many people attend, the timing might be slightly different. If you arrive into the room and mics/cameras are off, that means we are already writing. We will greet you on the break in person, but your host will send a welcome message to the chat with a link to the timer.

9:00 (Virtual) Doors Open
9:05 Introductions and goal setting
9:20 Writing begins for 60 minutes
10:20 Break for questions, feedback, or help
10:35 Timer reset for another 60-minute session
11:45 Good-byes

Online events will be hosted on Google Meet: [meet.google.com/nha-iwsf-qzj](meet.google.com/nha-iwsf-qzj)

**Book blurbs**
Seasons of Change is a poetry collection that traces human experiences, mapping them onto the rhythms of the natural world. In an era of climate change, the need for a more interconnected way of living has never been more urgent. This collection invites us to rekindle our bond with nature, remembering our place within it rather than our separation from it. It encourages us to slow down, attune to our senses, and align our lives with the restorative cycles of Mother Earth. A tender call and a quiet invitation, this book urges us to spiral back – beyond language, beyond time – to our very essence.

“Diana Radovan’s poems show us how the exile from history and belonging meets her own new genetics and anatomy in forest, cave, mountain, and every edge of the natural world. This poetry gives voice and image to a vision in which we are creation and creators. Woven
out of deep loss and a corresponding capacity for intimacy, her poetics earns a truth for readers: “It could be morning, there could be light.” from Dreams of Fog.”
Brigid Yuknavitch, Corporeal Writing Staff

“Diana Radovan’s words are not afraid to dissect, to bring out trapped words of the body, of the nervous system, and the layered, emotional experiences of womanhood. Diana leans into rewilding her language as the poetry of her soul pushes boundaries, extends touch, and
loves fiercely.”

Sarah Joy Thompson, Filipina-American poet and author of *Uprooted Orchid* (FlowerSong Press, 2025)

“Living in the seam between languages and topographies, Diana Radovan's poems sing and summon, whistling like wind over an open notebook, gazing at the ravine below. The lyric presence of nature calls us into the spaces that shape us and recreate us. As with the ancient shepherding trails of transhumance that can be found on every continent, the reader is reconnected to a type of pastoralism or nomadism, a seasonal movement of livestock between fixed summer and winter pastures, that imagines a self without weaponized borders and walls. At a time when so many words seek to alienate us further from the vulnerable
natural world, Radovan's poems refigure marvel and sublimity. They hold us in wonder andpossibility, and perhaps greatest of all, in breath-taking hope.”
Alina Stefanescu, author of *My Heresies* (Sarabande Books, 2025)

“These are poems of singular imagination, experimentation, and discipline. Radovan consistently wows with sharp turns, wild jumps and brilliant epiphanies. Her unique voice is like a vision of ancient waterfalls, full of inner wisdom.”
Jose Hernandez Diaz, author of *Bad Mexican, Bad American* (The University of Chicago Press, 2024) and *The Parachutist* (Sundress Publications, 2025)
