Join a month-long writing club this November. We’ll write together, read bravely, and hold each other accountable to create work that matters. You’ll receive support, prompts, and community - an intimate space for courage on the page. At the end of the month, we’ll gather our pieces into a shared collection, published on Substack and celebrated on The Aliveness Podcast.

Like a murmur of starlings we will explore the world together.

Weekly Rhythm & Support

• Weekly optional co-writing session (75 minutes)

• Weekly reading sessions (90 minutes)

• Writing prompts to inspire and challenge

• Support and accountability from the group

• A final collective showcase: one piece per member featured on Substack and invited for a podcast reading

I support writers with a strength based approach. This is not a critical feedback group. We listen deeply, respond from our bodies, hearts, and minds, and encourage your expressions. I have witnessed the power of this approach over and over again in honing vibrant and unique voices.

Tentative Schedule (to be confirmed when participants are finalized)

Co-writing sessions are Mondays 7-8:15am ET.
Weekly reading sessions are Tuesdays 11-12:30pm ET and Thursdays 8-9:30am ET. (You will be assigned a reading time in one of them but you are welcome to attend both)

We will meet November 3 - December 5 and will take the week of November 24th off for the American holiday.

Please don’t let schedule hold you back from joining us - if you are interested and these times don’t work, email me at alison@alisoncrosthwait.com and we’ll figure it out.

Note that prices are in Canadian Dollars. 175 CAD is approximately 125 USD.
