The Blisscipline Writing Practice in Action Presented by Isa de Quesada

A monthly workshop to come together as receive support in our writing endeavors

In this monthly workshop, participants will have the opportunity to practice one of the cornerstones of the Blisscipline Writing Practice – Accountability. We will begin each class to check in and offer support as we travel the road of writing.

As writers, we spend so much time alone and with our creative process but we don’t always have the opportunity to be with other writers to learn and share ideas. By meeting monthly we will help each other get through moments of frustration and loneliness. The workshop will offer camaraderie as well as the opportunity to write together, share our writing, receive feedback, read our work and plan events that support us as writers.

Join us monthly as we begin a daily Blisscipline Writing Practice based on the Joy Factor, Accountability and Balance, and share our journey as writers.
