Raw Writing Challenge for August
2025-08-01 09:00 - 2025-08-31 10:00 (Europe/London) | Online / Email
Are you looking for writing inspiration this summer?
Do you want to become a better writer?
Do you want to establish a regular writing practice?
Do you want to join a writing community and enjoy a weekly Zoom get-together where you can discuss your writing week?
If the answer to any of the above questions is ‘YES!’ then please sign up for the Raw Writing August 31 Day Challenge.
This is how it works:
You’ll receive your first Raw Writing prompt on Friday 1st August.
You’ll be encouraged to set a timer for five minutes and then just write!
There’s no pressure to go beyond five minutes, although if you want to write for longer, go for it.
You’ll continue to receive a Raw Writing prompt every morning in August.
Raw Writing will host optional live Zoom sessions each week (Fridays 10-11am, or Sunday 18.00-19.00) so you can come along and discuss your writing week with everyone else who signed up.
Friday 8th August (10-11am)
Sun 10th August (18.00-19.00)
Friday 15th August (10-11am)
Sun 17th August (18.00-19.00)
Fri 22nd August (10-11am)
Sunday 24th August (18.00-19.00)
Fri 29th August (10-11am)
Sun 31st August (18.00-19.00)
When you write regularly, you get better at it. But sometimes it’s hard to know where to start. The more we encourage ourselves to view the world differently, think in new ways and create a discipline, five minutes at a time, the more inspired we’ll feel.
Some of the best writing I’ve produced has been in response to writing prompts that initially made me feel deflated, annoyed, or uncomfortable!
This Raw Writing August Challenge gives you the opportunity to step outside your comfort zone and experiment with your writing.
You will build a great portfolio of writing that you can then come back to and develop further.
It is just £30. This is a one-off payment for 31 days of writing prompts, and the chance to attend four live Zoom sessions (choose Friday or Sunday).
If you’d like to take part but find cost is a barrier, there are some funded places available.
I would love you to be part of this Raw Writing challenge and take your writing to the next level!
