In our hectic culture, we oftentimes forget the importance of connecting with ourselves and others.  We don't make time to listen, either to our own inner selves or to others. 

Through creative writing, we enter into the sacred space of listening on the page, and this process opens the door to our own unique voice and vision.   This space is enlightening, sometimes surprising, and often even healing.

Sharing our work with others in a supportive enviornment breathes life into the work. As we present our work outside of ourselves, it touches others as well. As we listen to others share their work, it touches us.  And it is in this touching that the true power of the word lies.

By connecting with ourselves and others through writing and sharing our works, we enter into a new understanding. This understanding helps us discover our own truths as well as those of others. This is the wonder and benefit of The Midnight Muse Writers' Community.

Along with online journals, critique groups, message boards, and live author readings and interviews, we'll offer courses in Creative Writing, Writing to Heal, Introduction to the Short Story Workshop, Advanced Short Story Workshop, Creative NonFiction, Invoking the Gifts, Healing Presence, Journaling Through Your Journey, Nurturing the Novel I, II,and III, and others. 

We look forward to working with you!

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up."  --Pablo Picasso
