This might have to be my start to having a "silent" retreat. I had one booked last year, and chickened out at the last second. A creative writing retreat...this sounds incredible.

Do it x3000. You won’t regret the time.

Thank you!

Write about the moth experience! Excited to hear how that goes. I really enjoyed this. I’ve done some self led retreats like this before and it’s always yielded the good. Thanks for sharing- this inspired me in a time I needed it!

High fives all around - I definitely will share about The Moth later this week

The real mystery is why we can't find your coffee on Trade?? (We are Trade subscribers too!)

Haha that was a joke. IT IS THE BEST SERVICE RIGHT?

I actually haven't but it's one of the things I put on my list of goals for 2024!
