This is the eighth session in this weekly series of short guided practices for writers.

I’m glad you’re here.

Each week, you’ll:

  • Return to, or create, a small piece of writing

  • Make one tiny, specific revision move so your work keeps developing over time

You don’t need to have done previous sessions to join. All you need is your notebook or keyboard and a willingness to show up in the body you’re in.

Each week, you’ll make a little something, and then you’ll make one tiny revision move so the writing keeps moving.

Grab your notebook or open a doc, and let your body get a word in before your mind starts tidying everything up.

Focus: The body’s version

Session length: 30 minutes

  • Settle in & Prepare: ~3 min

  • Generative writing: ~15 min

  • Micro revision: ~9 min

  • Closing reflection: ~3 min

(If you find yourself in flow in any sections, you can always pause the recording and stay a bit longer.)

Access to the full audio and exercises is available exclusively to paid subscribers. If you are not a paid subscriber, simply unlock this session to try it out.
