SUMMARY:Turning Your Writing Practice into a Creative Offering
DESCRIPTION:In this two-part workshop series\, you’ll first explore how to build a restorative\, sustainable writing practice rooted in your values\, interests\, and natural creative rhythms. Then on day two\, you’ll learn how to thoughtfully shape your writing into a creative offering\, identifying the messages you want to share\, the audience you hope to reach\, and the platforms or projects that best align with your goals. Whether you’re beginning your writing journey\, returning after time away\, or looking for fresh direction\, you’ll leave with practical tools\, greater creative clarity\, and a deeper sense of purpose for both your writing practice and your creative life. Please note: If you’ve previously taken GG’s standalone workshop\, Writing as a Restorative Practice\, the first day of this series covers much of that same material. The second day offers new content focused on shaping your writing into a creative offering and sharing it with intention.

SUMMARY:Writing Practices for Busy Minds
DESCRIPTION:Traditional writing advice doesn’t work for every writer. Created with neurodivergent writers in mind\, this workshop is also for anyone whose writing process is shaped by a busy mind\, limited time or energy\, or the competing demands of everyday life. If you think in loops and layers\, struggle with focus\, overwhelm\, or organizing ideas\, or find yourself caught between bursts of inspiration and periods of resistance\, you’re not alone. Drawing from lived experience and years of teaching writers\, we’ll explore writing practices that honor the way different minds create. You’ll learn to recognize your unique attention patterns\, work with rather than against your creative process\, and develop strategies for navigating common challenges such as idea overwhelm\, perfectionism\, non-linear thinking\, executive dysfunction\, and wavering motivation. You’ll leave with practical techniques to support each phase of the writing process—from prewriting and drafting to revisin —in ways that are flexible and sustainable. Whether you’re navigating ADHD or another form of neurodivergence\, living with chronic illness\, balancing caregiving responsibilities\, experiencing burnout\, or simply finding that traditional writing advice doesn’t fit your life\, this workshop offers adaptable tools that help you build a writing practice that works with your mind and circumstances\, not against them.
