Dear Friends,

The CWC newsletter is a free literary resource for the Substack community.

I started Conscious Writers Collective with the vision of democratizing the MFA, making it possible for writers at all stages of their writing lives to learn from literary giants, be guided by me, and develop their writing practice in community.

To say thank you to our Paid Subscribers, who signed up to support us while knowing this was a free publication (thank you!), we’ll be offering a monthly replay of a past CWC session in this newsletter.

This way, you can learn from some of our extraordinary visitors and get a sneak peak into what it’s like to join our community (remember: between our regularly scheduled meetings, guest visitors, and community schedule, we meet 10+ times a month! We’re big believers in replays!).

What you will notice throughout class is this:

  • Extraordinarily thoughtful, talented, and engaged members (I could not love my CWC family any more than I do).

  • The abundance of brilliance and patient advice from essayist, novelist, and poet

    Devin Kelly
    , whose Substack is one of my absolute favorites.

Don’t forget to revisit
