What will you get by joining the Writing Table?

WRITING

Weekly email reminders

Each Sunday and Thursday you get email reminders that include inspiration, writing quotes, and guidance on how to improve your practice.

Relevant support

First and foremost, we support each other by showing up. The community that emerges at the Writing Table goes beyond our 5 hours of writing together each week. Knowing others are writing at the same time each day will urge you to also show up and write.

Intentional focus on process

At the Writing Table you never have to say what you are working on; the focus is on how we cultivate habits to get our writing done. Certainly, some writers share what they are writing, and we invite celebrations of accomplishments. But you are never required to share your work!

Thoughts, ideas, and skills

Learning a practice like writing means there is always room for growth and improvement. Gathering each day with pastors, professors, authors, and poets means we get to learn from each other what works, what to avoid, and how we can improve our skills and habits of writing.

Inspiration to start, finish, and survive the muddy middle

Writing comes in stages, and we need different things at different moments in a project. Being at different stages when we gather means we borrow wisdom from each other such as “touching the project” and “leaving a trail of breadcrumbs” and “writing to think.”

No WT Police

Eileen likes to say, “There are no Writing Table Police!” We are not here for guilt, criticism, or shame. We are not going to emphasize rules or fuss when you are late. We are here for support, encouragement, energy, and accountability.

Great Results

We know a tree by its fruit. We know something is working when we see the results. Visit our website and learn more about some of the fantastic writing that has come to life at the Writing Table. We hope you will join us and add your links soon.

TABLE

Time to write

The best part of the Writing Table is having designated time to write each weekday. A little writing each day adds up quicker than you think it might.

Accountability and camaraderie

With a community of writers you can write alone, but in a community. This makes the writing time both easier and more fun, honestly.

Breathing and intention setting

Each writing session includes centering breath work, focus on intentions, and silence for writing in two twenty-five minute poms.

Lasting writing habits

You will be building your habits and becoming an everyday writer; daily writing is a proven path to more publishing and greater fluency as a writer.

Encouraging and supportive coaching

We share strategies at the end of each writing session, and Eileen offers friendly coaching and encouragement; for more one-on-one coaching options, see the other offerings for basic coaching or developmental coaching.  Join professors, pastors, students, poets, business writers, full time authors, and journal keepers at the Writing Table.   * There are occasional weekdays that coincide with holidays when we do not meet.

#FreeWrite Fridays

For 2025, Fridays will remain FREE. Just sign up to receive the link. And when you purchase an annual membership, you will automatically be subscribed to the #FreeWrite Friday email reminder.   *There will be occasional holidays and exceptions when we do not meet. But there will also be occasional bonus writing sessions as well!
