Writing Together: A Year of Meaning-Making and Friendship - Paperback
Description
by Penny Williamson (Author), Darcy Shaw (Author)
"Writing Together is a unique dual-memoir that guides readers to pen their own creative journeys. A real gift. It's a beautiful model of the kind of friendship that can make us better people and make the world a better place." --Parker J. Palmer, author of Let Your Life Speak, A Hidden Wholeness, Healing the Heart of Democracy, and On the Brink of Everything
WHAT IF CONNECTION, NOT CRITIQUE, MADE YOUR WRITING COME ALIVE?
What happens when two unlikely friends-separated by age, gender, profession, and geography-commit to writing together for a year? They discover how our most profound insights emerge when we create a safe, nonjudgmental space to listen-to ourselves and to each other.
Writing Together blends memoir and creative guide, offering poetry-inspired prompts and a simple process anyone can use.
More than a traditional writing guide, Writing Together offers a reflective journey of self-discovery. It's an invitation to:
- Flex your intellectual, emotional, and spiritual muscles
- Reconnect with your most authentic self
- Explore life's pivotal moments through a supportive, creative lens
- Deepen friendships through vulnerable storytelling
- Make sense of your life's unfinished stories
Ideal for friends, professionals, and anyone feeling stuck or seeking renewal, this is writing not for publication, but for the most important audience of all-yourself. Sharpen your pencil, charge your laptop, and prepare for unexpected discoveries.
