Free-Range Writers Sessions Still Suspended
Most AWA affiliates were forced to suspend the treasured writing circles created in their in-person workshops during the pandemic. To our surprise, many of us discovered that we could not only make an intimate and safe space online, but that we could connect with even more of our world-wide community through Zoom and other online meeting software.
Personal circumstances have made it impossible for me to offer my own online writing sessions. Life does have a way of evening out. Health improves, demands decrease, responsibilities ease. For me, it’s been a slow and intermittent process. So while I can’t be sure, I’m hoping to be able to lead online workshops beginning in March of 2026; I will almost certainly participate in Write Around the World in February 2026. Look for me there, fill out the form below to let me know you’re interested, or contact me if you’d like to talk about it: lane (at) lanegoddard.com. In the meantime, check out the AWA Affiliate Directory. You’ll find hundreds of wonderful AWA-certified workshop leaders all over the world.
As Pat Schneider said, “A good writing workshop is a safe place to experiment, to gain courage as well as skill, to learn—in short, to write.” I am looking forward to again creating a safe writing space for myself and other writers.
