Imaginative Storm | A Writer's Workshop

Each week is an independent experience, you are free to join us as you are able. What is the Imaginative Storm Method? Think of your imagination as a muscle. The more you work it, the stronger and stretchier it gets. The great thing is, no pain! No groaning and burning! Just play and exploration and surprise. We'll supply a prompt, think of it as a gym for your writing muscles, or use it to open a window into a scene or a character. It’s a great strategy for getting your imagination to give you the gifts that you can’t just “think up” with your rational mind. After engaging with the prompt, our facilitator will set a timer for 10 minutes... this helps you not try to write well, because how can you write something good in 10 minutes? *We recommend bringing pen and paper for this exercise, rather than a computer.* Don’t plan what you are going to write. Think of it as a dance between your rational mind and your imagination, with your imagination taking the lead. Once our 10 minutes are up, we'll share our writing with others in the group. Again, this group is about support and encouragement. Come prepared to be a little vulnerable but also to cheer others on! Questions? Email Heather Sparkman at [email protected] for more information.
