Get Your Scribble On

"We all write poems; it is simply that poets are the ones who write in words." - John Fowles

Get out of your head and onto the page to write your heart out. Gift yourself 1h30 to play with words and unpack different themes like the body, being alone, finding your calling and more thru writing.

Lauren Ducrey, award-winning poet, speaker and author offers examples and prompts to guide you. You'll get lightweight workshopping from a super supportive group to leave a piece you're proud of.

Rediscover poetry as an anti-perfectionist practice and meet other word-lovers.

You can drop-in to any and all sessions. We'll be meeting via Zoom.

Who is this for?

🌱 Beginners feeling the itch to get scribbling.

🌿 Closeted poets feeling the urge to develop their craft with others.

🌳 Seasoned writers looking for a dedicated time to practice writing.

What participants love about this workshops:

"I loved the whole experience of getting into a zone where you can journal and freely write poetry. The guided experience was very helpful along with feedback from participants during breakout sessions. Highly recommended for someone who wants to get into writing poetry." - Lora

"I so appreciate the accessibility of this experience from an emotional safety standpoint and creative outlet standpoint!" - Nic

"I finally gathered the courage to read my poetry out loud to others. Thank you so much, you inspired me in your beauty and freedom."- Julie

How much does this cost?

💲 This workshop has sliding scale pricing, because I believe poetry should be accessible to all. Both in concept and financially. If you're in a financial situation where you'd like a free ticket, please email me at laurenducrey@gmail.com

About the facilitator:

Hi, I'm Lauren: a poet, a mindfulness facilitator and a UX content strategist. I have two Masters in American Literature and Sustainability & Social Innovation. In previous lives I was a political speechwriter, a music journalist and an educator. I've taken all these experiences and cooked them up into this workshop which I've now led with hundreds of participants both publicly and in corporate settings.

I published my first book of poetry Tongues Tied in November 2021, and released an album of music and poetry called Cordes sensibles. I'm the laureate of the Moving Words Festival, an international project between writers, animators and film makers.

I perform live in NYC (Gaia NoMaya, Lightning Society, CAMP festival) and Paris where I co-founded the series of poetry events La poésie vous va si bien (in partnership with la Maison de la conversation).
