We gather together and write in a series of 10 minute spontaneous writing exercises.
Come and join us. Here is a piece written by Wendy McHugh on "Why I Write."
Why do I write?
I write for the fun of it. I write because I like words and the ways in which I can string them together.
I write to record my past; to remind myself of long-lost memories.
I write to celebrate my life, my experiences and my understandings.
I write because it is easy to for me to paint pictures; to make a memory of people, places and times.
I write and it soothes my soul. Writing re-inforces my existence and gives value to my experience. It enhances my sense of self and encourages me to be understood and forgiving myself and others.
My writing is a celebration, a joy, a gift.
