"Something that irritates you and won’t let you go. That’s the anguish of it."
“Do this book, or die. You have to go through that." - James Baldwin. Meet us at 1:00 to go through it together at Writers Daily Dive. You'll feel better. I promise.
"When you’re writing, you’re trying to find out something which you don’t know. The whole language of writing for me is finding out what you don’t want to know, what you don’t want to find out. But something forces you to anyway. You have to believe your story matters to even notice a story idea speaking to you. You can’t hear the muses’ whispers if you don’t believe in yourself enough to listen.” James Baldwin.
You are invited to our Writers Daily Dive on Zoom, where we are practicing serious self-compassion by showing up even on dark days. But you can also paint, or stare into Zoom space.
Join us for one hour of focus during the chaos of the day. 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.

Because winds howl, mountains are treacherous, demons snarl and show their fangs. Books are repositories of lives, and the only thing that outlasts time. We need a sturdy book-ship for travel into true territory. A ship-shaped-book for resurrection, magic, truth, transformation.
A subscription gets you a week of the Writers Daily Dive. After that you can upgrade to $10 bucks a month.
If you can’t make it in the middle of the day, please send this to someone who might need just this push.
We also have a running writers group that has been meeting in East Hampton for 9 years! we now meet on Zoom. It’s called the Writers Collective Out East. A subscription entitles you to a free Zoom meeting where we write in-group and then give feedback to members on their submitted pieces of writing. We meet every Wednesday at 6:30 PM EST.
