​[This is a Virtual Ruby event, a 7-week discussion/accountability group that will meet virtually on Tuesdays.]

​Write for Life, published in 2023, is the latest book from author and artist Julia Cameron of The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity. The book posits that within every person is a source of creativity waiting to be unleashed. This group is a continuation of the work done over the last 13 weeks in our yearly Artist's Way groups. This is an additional 7-week Artist's Way-style meetup using Julia Cameron's book, Write for Life to continue to cultivate creative momentum.

​Please note: since we are beginning a new book, all with an interest in writing are welcome to join! It is not a requirement to have read the previous book or to have been a part of a previous Artist Way group.

​As we usher in new spring energy, join us in a journey of spiritual and artistic renewal: a journey to reconnect with ourselves and overcome the mental blocks inhibiting our writing process. This group is for all writers, beginning to professional, looking to connect more deeply to your creative writing self and the art of beginning, pursuing, and finishing our writing projects and visions.

​In a small group over the course of 7 weeks, we will meet online every Tuesday for 1.5 hours to share, listen, and support one another in our writing journeys. The intention of this creative cluster is to create a safe space for us to embark on writing exploration together, where no one feels alone in these, often, isolating times.

​After our initial intro meeting, every week over the subsequent weeks, you will be asked to complete:

• ​Morning pages: a daily writing ritual of three pages of stream-of-conscious

• ​The Artist Date: a dedicated block of time to nurture your inner artist

• ​Weekly exercises and prompts

• ​Meet with your creative cluster to share and listen

​We invite Rubies and transfeminine, women, and non-binary extended community members join us.
