why
write to yourself?
Let's start by acknowledging that there’s a reason you’re reading this now. Some thought or desire that drove you here.
Now, before you panic and decide that this is all very silly and scary and, actually, it’s not for you, I invite you to pause for a moment and reflect on what that desire was. What is it you’re seeking that you thought you might find?
Do you want to reconnect to your writing practice? Overcome your fear of the blank page? Discover or rediscover your voice? Find healing? Find community? Find yourself? All of the above?
By choosing curiosity over fear, we always find our why.
Now, with your why in mind, take a look at what Write to Yourself has to offer, and see if that aligns with what you’re looking for...
who is this for?
Writers who want to expand on or supplement their existing writing process
Writers who want to unblock something, get unstuck and find their flow again
Writers who need community, accountability, inspiration, motivation and guidance
People who don’t consider themselves writers, but who enjoy writing as a hobby
People who’ve never written a thing in their lives
People who found writing at school difficult, but are curious to try again in a safe friendly, low pressure environment
People who want to heal, grow and better understand themselves and their stories through writing
What to expect ON a RETREAT:
Multiple daily sessions with the group as well as dedicated solo writing time
Writing exercises and mixed media prompts to help get things flowing
Lecture style sessions and Q&As with Hazel on her writing practice and experience writing short stories, novels and screenplays
Group readings, workshops and sharing circles
Kind, honest feedback if you choose to share
A recommended reading list in advance of the retreat
Daily meditative practices and visualisations
Freedom to go at your own pace, take what you need and leave what you don’t
To come away restored, revived and ready to write!
