Journaling for Creatives During Difficult Times (In Center)
Register Here - https://rssny.org/class-forms/journaling-for-creative-people-during-difficult-times.html
Please register - the class is limited to 8 people
Reignite your creativity. Rekindle your passion. Write your way through.
Are you feeling stuck? Wrestling with writer’s block? Tired of creating the same thing over and over?
You’re not alone — and you don’t have to stay stuck.
In challenging times, our creative spark can flicker. But sometimes, all it takes is a small prompt, a supportive space, and a few minutes of honest writing to unlock something big.
Join Lori Perkins — former NYU journalism professor and author of 25 books — for a weekly group journaling experience designed to reconnect you with your creative voice.
In a small, supportive group (no more than 8 participants), you'll:
· Receive powerful, thought-provoking prompts
· Write short, spontaneous personal essays in 10-minute bursts
· Share your work (only if you want to!) and draw inspiration from others
· Build momentum and confidence in your creative process — one session at a time
All you need is something to write with. No experience required. Just a willingness to show up and explore.
Whether you're a writer, artist, musician, or maker of any kind — this is your space to reflect, express, and create through the chaos.
Lori Perkins is an established NY literary agent who started an award-winning publishing company 12 years ago. She is also the author of 25 books (both fiction and nonfiction) as well as the publisher of Romancedailynews.com, an online romance-related magazine. She was an adjunct professor of journalism at NYU for 2 decades, and the founder and owner of Uptown Weekly News, a neighborhood newspaper in Upper Manhattan.
