Friday Morning Flow-state Writing Practice

Illustration by Austin Kleon

Your ideas and freedom to write will be nurtured in this flow-state, morning practice.

We prepare to write with a 10-minute silent meditation, to clear our minds of clutter, shut down the judgmental sector of our thoughts, and dismiss all expectations for the next 40 minutes of free-flow writing. You may refer to the audio/video timers provided on screen for your convenience . You are encouraged to dismiss the judgmental voice and open yourself to channel Source and continuously record whatever thoughts come to mind without restraint. After the 40 minutes is spent, you may optionally share what you have created.

Like playing Jazz or working with improv on stage, the goal is to open a doorway to the unknown and see what flies in. Typical results are life opening and mind expanding--like growing flowers or mushrooms--amazing things come into being. Participants frequently say this practice is a cure for writers block.

We also host a similar practice on Thursday evenings at 6 PM EST each week that you are encouraged to join.

You are invited to join with a cadre of fellow writers to explore all manner of creative writing. This is a sounding board, a test bed, a safe place to share and obtain reader response to your work. Everyone is encouraged to voice their honest reactions to the works presented in our weekly practice sessions in a constructive manner.
