A container to support writing, shaping, or editing of a project with Tarot-inspired processes to tune into your intuition and learn more about your own process as a writer. Group sessions at the end of each day provide structure to the weekend while most of the days are open for participants to work on their own projects.

WHO is it for: Writers who are working on a project and want to move it to the next level. Participants will come with a body of work that would benefit from some concentrated time and attention. We won’t be doing craft work so the genre doesn’t matter. No Tarot experienced needed; we’ll be working with our intuitive responses to images and special meaning keys I’ve developed from writers.

WHEN: Held periodically, we start with a session on Friday night from 7pm to 9pm and conclude with a session & optional reading on Sunday at 3pm.

WHERE: We will meet in Zoomlandia for our end of the day sessions and you will write in your own place during the days.

HOW does it work?:

#1: You write RETREAT on your calendar for that weekend, and when people ask you to do something then, you reply, “Oh, drats, I can’t I’m on retreat that weekend.” And you smile.

#2: You prepare to arrive with a one sentence statement of what your work is about, and also some reflections on these questions:

• Why am I compelled to write this work?
• Why I am I the one who is right to write this work?
• Who might this work best serve / inspire?
• What stage of work am I in?
• What do you know (if anything) about what works well for you when you at this stage of writing?

#3: Gather on Friday at 7pm to share an overview of our work, do a Tarot Mandala to get advice for focus for weekend, and leave with an intention set for what to accomplish over the weekend and on Saturday.

#4: Write wherever you want.

#5: Gather from 5pm to 7pm on Saturday to share our progress and receive tarot support for working with the demons and angels who help and hinder us in our writing.

#6: Return on Sunday from 3pm to 5pm for a reading (7 minutes max per person), structured/brief feedback, assessment of progress, and next steps. All with Tarot support.
