A 1-HOUR WORKSHOP WITH NATALIE SERIANNI
Tuning Into the Quiet: Excavating Our Ideas
Come be nourished in your writing. Find a bit of ease during a stressful month!
In this gentle generative workshop, we’ll open with a writing prompt to warm us. Then, we’ll think about our fascinations, obsessions, and curiosities, and how we can write into the challenge of what we’re really trying to say.
We'll talk about finding our focus and a form, or container, for holding a longer piece. Lastly, we’ll consider how these ideas can become a shorter piece or personal essay that you can pick back up in the new year.
This time is for you. We’ll excavate our ideas and lean into the dark, quiet stillness of December, together.

Here's what you'll gain:
- An hour of quiet reflection with your words in community with other writers
- Generative tools to brainstorm topics and select essay-worthy material
- How to mine ideas for longer pieces to come back to later.
- An opportunity to lean into your creativity during a chaotic season.
