Writing Club for Writers

One Weird Trick to Beat Writer's Block: A Writing Club for Writers Mini-Session

<h3>Writing Club for Writers is a group writing practice for anyone who wants to write, but isn&#x27;t.</h3>It&#x27;s not a class, and it&#x27;s not a workshop. There is no syllabus. No critiques. Homework is optional. We&#x27;ll be using prompts and exercises to bypass our inner critics so we can write the scary stuff: ugly writing, boring writing, writing that makes no sense, writing that&#x27;s full of grammatical errors, etc. We&#x27;ll see that writing can be fun, easy, and something we look forward to doing. It doesn&#x27;t have to fill us with dread. Writing Club for Writers is for you if:<ul><li>you want to write, but you haven&#x27;t written in months or years (or ever) and you don&#x27;t know how to start.</li><li>you want to write, but you think have nothing to say.</li><li>you want to write, but you&#x27;re afraid you don&#x27;t have a unique writing voice.</li><li>you want to write, but you feel you&#x27;re not talented because your writing never lives up to the stories in your head.</li><li>you want to write, but English isn&#x27;t your first language.</li><li>you want to write.</li></ul>

Writing Club for Writers is NOT for you if:<ul><li>you want to receive critiques for your novel, essay, poem, etc.</li><li>you want to learn how to write engaging Instagram captions, blog posts, email newsletters...</li><li>you're looking for tips and tricks on pitching editors and agents.</li></ul>

Hi. I'm Zoey, a zinester, a writer and an artist, and I've got a confession to make. I haven't written anything in almost a year. Let's just say I'm rusty. So rusty that it took me three weeks to write this listing. When I first tried to write about this event, my inner critic was doing high kicks and somersaults. (She's very active.) I couldn't focus for more than two minutes. I'd type three words, then spend two hours watching natural hair videos on Youtube (as you can see, I showed some restraint), or taking a nap (did I mention that I'd just woken up?), or looking for a snack (yes, it took two hours to find saltines). After a few days of this, I'd trash everything and start again, because NOTHING I wrote was good enough. I started Writing Club for Writers because writing doesn't have to feel like punishment. It can be enjoyable, but it takes practice. I learned this in a writing group just like this one. Let's practice writing together!
