Service Description

Taking inspiration from poet laureate Ted Kooser, poet Mary Oliver, essayist Margaret Renkl, and others, we will explore the realm of the ordinary, elements of our everyday world that we often fail to fully notice. Following the creative flow of these writers, we’ll discover and experience our own world anew and practice reflecting what we find in words that express the ordinary and elevate it to the marvelous. Whether you’re a seasoned writer or are just jumping in, published writer and trained writing coach Karyn Henley will make you feel welcome as she gently leads the way through non-judgmental, fun and freeing writing prompts, tips, and exercises that will encourage you to listen to your heart and converse with your own life on the page. You can keep what you write private or share it in supportive community. Either way, our free, open practice of playing with words and thoughts can help you discover, nurture, and honor your life.
