Love Is Immersion, Jump In

Join WRITERS DAILY DIVE and discover how habit creates magic. Make an appointment with your muse and keep it! 1:00 weekdays. We meet. We chat. We mute. We write in silence. It's a little bit genius.

Happy Birthday Nicholas.

This is the chapter from our book that won first place this January. Ship Of Theseus.

Thanks to Love and Liberation Daily:

"Ship of Theseus"

Why the dive, and why is it daily, and why do it with others?

Because it is a leap of faith to go into our work. There’s an invisible barrier that tells us not to take the plunge, but going in daily hurts less. Ive learned this swimming in the Long Island Sound. The longer you resist plunging in, the colder the water. It is also easier to meet the strange creatures of the deep in the safety of a group, which offers a special kind of charged silence.

Join us for one hour of focus during the chaos of the day. We are practicing serious self-compassion by showing up even on dark days. We meet on Zoom at 1:00 pm, EST. We leave our cameras on so it feels less lonely. We wrap up at 2:00. Those who are onto something just continue writing. Those who want to check in can chat.

Think of Writers Daily Dive as a safe landing place. We keep it a little loose. It doesn’t have to be stressful. You could use it as a silent place to think or meditate. But if you do want to write, you can use these images as prompts. I love writing from images. It gives me a structure. Write only what I can see. It's a great exercise for those of us who get lost in out heady thoughts - to stay in the image at all costs.
