Online Writing
Community
Bring your creativity, doubts, questions, and willingness to connect into an online community that names the world as gift. Creation thrives in a flow of giving and receiving. In this space, we orient our hearts toward the gifts of writing–insight, healing, growth, and meaningful presence. Each of us is a gift to the whole, and our best gifts to others are hearts widened by creativity.
-
Take a short writing course from Elizabeth Jarrett Andrew, which will put all community members on the same page as we gather online together.
-
After you complete the course, you’ll be invited to join the writing community, where we will host events, classes, and foster a space for writers to encourage one another.
