Today is National Writing Day. Why do I write? I write to make sense of my life. I write to discover what I have to say. Writing allows me to celebrate the power of language. Www.ralphfletcherbooks.com

Terrific novel. I'm probably the last one to get around to reading it. Incredible to think that the author wrote this powerful book when she was just 23 years old.
"Writing helps us discover what we know. Writing is different than talking. When we jot something down, we distill its essence; it becomes part of us; we own it in a new way." from Joy Write: Cultivating High-Impact, Low-Stakes Writing.
We had 27 participants last summer at this retreat and 10 of them have decided to come back again this summer. We still have about five spaces left.
