Beginnings
Beginner’s mind – getting started
A Zoom Masterclass – subscribe for updates including the next time this class runs.
Fresh starts for new ideas, rebooting old projects, setting out in writing, trying a different form: we begin with beginnings and the beginner’s mind. We’ll consider strong openings, and discuss notebooks and reading, and identify tools and tips for the longer journey of drafting (and redrafting) until a project is complete: knowledge, intention, ritual, practice.
- Each masterclass will run on Zoom, with discussion on this month’s topics, plus a writing exercise and Q&A.
- A week before the class, you’ll be emailed optional homework: brief preparatory readings as well as writing exercises.
- After each class, you’ll also be emailed a unit workbook with notes on craft as well as writing experiments, reading recommendations and further resources.
- Classes will be live. Recordings will not be available.
