Weekly CRAFT SCHOOL Mighty Network posts where we'll continue our close reading of longer works introduced in the monthly Zoom, respond to additional writing exercises, and engage in close reading of each other's work. 

Small groups for taking the work deeper, swapping pages with peers, meeting on Zoom, additional close reading, etc.

An engaged community with members who come to know and invest in each other’s projects and goals deeply enough to be genuinely helpful to one another.

One 2-hour Zoom close read focused on craft with a generative writing exercise led by core faculty and a guest talk/Q & A/visit from a writer, editor, or publisher. All monthly Zooms will take place the last Wednesday of the month 6-8 PM Central and will be recorded for registered participants.

Four co-writes with optional prompts on a rotating schedule 

One yoga nidra /meditation, breathwork session, or informal talk by an artist, musician, or creator in another discipline.  

One book talk featuring core faculty discussing how a particular book shaped us and why we’ve read it more than once, or a book we’ve read recently that bowled us over. Or we might have an informal conversation with a writer whose book we love, or some other book topic we can’t wait to share.

One digital campfire event per quarter (core faculty and CRAFT SCHOOL cohort only)

One open mic reading per quarter (family and friends welcome to attend!)

One seasonally themed postal exchange
