Want to Bring the Writing Circle to Your People?

I create custom writing experiences for groups of all kinds — friends who want to gather around something meaningful, a workplace retreat, a sangha, a milestone, a loss, a celebration. Weddings, bar mitzvahs, divorce parties — I’m only half joking.

If you have a group and a reason to write together, I’d love to make it happen. Email me and let’s make something happen.
