SUMMARY:Raw Writing Challenge for August
DESCRIPTION:Are you looking for writing inspiration this summer?\nDo you want to become a better writer?\nDo you want to establish a regular writing practice?\nDo you want to join a writing community and enjoy a weekly Zoom get-together where you can discuss your writing week? \nIf the answer to any of the above questions is ‘YES!’ then please sign up for the Raw Writing August 31 Day Challenge. \nThis is how it works: \nYou’ll receive your first Raw Writing prompt on Friday 1st August.\nYou’ll be encouraged to set a timer for five minutes and then just write!\nThere’s no pressure to go beyond five minutes\, although if you want to write for longer\, go for it.\nYou’ll continue to receive a Raw Writing prompt every morning in August.\nRaw 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. \nFriday 8th August (10-11am)\nSun 10th August (18.00-19.00)\nFriday 15th August (10-11am)\nSun 17th August (18.00-19.00)\nFri 22nd August (10-11am)\nSunday 24th August (18.00-19.00)\nFri 29th August (10-11am)\nSun 31st August (18.00-19.00) \nWhen 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. \nSome of the best writing I’ve produced has been in response to writing prompts that initially made me feel deflated\, annoyed\, or uncomfortable! \nThis Raw Writing August Challenge gives you the opportunity to step outside your comfort zone and experiment with your writing. \nYou will build a great portfolio of writing that you can then come back to and develop further. \nIt 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).\nIf you’d like to take part but find cost is a barrier\, there are some funded places available. \nI would love you to be part of this Raw Writing challenge and take your writing to the next level!
