Magick

Our monthly magical writing workshop is appropriate for writers of all levels and types (poetry and prose). Join TaraTheBard in a guided discussion about magical writing practices, ancestral connection and creativity, seasonal writing practices, publication luck magic, putting craft into storycrafting, and more. Each session focuses on the theme of a tarot card. This inclusive workshop provides support to new and experienced writers, a thematic prompt, in-workshop writing time, and space to share ideas and results. Paper notebooks, laptops, and tablets encouraged. Bring your best writing tools, your favorite blanket, a cozy cup of tea, or whatever you need to connect with the spirits of writing. \*\*New attendees welcome!\*\* This month, we plan to create and enact a group spell, discuss the Wheel of Fortune and luck/fortune theme, and explore how that theme could appear in our writing. FOCUS: March's Magical Writing Workshop focuses on The Wheel of Fortune -- a major arcana card of the tarot. Please bring your favorite tarot deck's Wheel card (though you may also borrow a store deck if needed). Writing Review: February's Magical Writing Workshop focused on the Lovers card and its symbo;s. We will devote part of the time to discussing our Lovers writing.
