Live sessions are offered twice on Friday to accommodate different time zones. Recordings are available if you can't attend live.

Session times:

• 11:00am CEST

• 5:00pm CEST

Called to Write is for people who feel drawn to writing and have an idea, memory, question, or experience they want to bring onto the page.

You may be returning after a long break.

Or you may be trying to begin properly for the first time.

What matters is not how experienced you are.

What matters is that something has been asking for your attention, and you want support turning it into a finished piece of writing.

Expect around 30 minutes per day on your own schedule, plus one 90-minute bi-weekly call — that you can watch the recording if you can't make it.

Enough to create real movement, without turning writing into another full-time obligation.

You will still have access to all activities and can return to them in your own time.

The cohort gives the experience a shared rhythm, but it is not designed around perfection.

The important thing is not completing every exercise exactly on schedule.

It is continuing to return.

And if something significant happens and you need to step away entirely, just message me. I’ll welcome you into a future cohort, free of charge, when the timing works better for you.

Called to Write is primarily designed for nonfiction: personal essays, reflective pieces, idea-led writing, and true stories you want to understand more deeply.

Writers working on a short story are also welcome.

The experience is designed to help you develop one self-contained piece rather than complete a novel, memoir manuscript, or larger project.

If you are working on something longer, you are welcome to use Called to Write to develop one chapter, scene, essay, or short story within that project.

You do not need to know the exact form your piece will take before you join.

You can begin with a memory, question, observation, tension, image, or fragment that has been asking for your attention.

That is completely fine.

You do not need to arrive with a polished idea or a clear plan.

The first part of the experience is designed to help you notice the material that is already there and find the thread that feels most alive.

That's totally normal.

You will never be forced to share more than you are ready to share.

The space is designed for unfinished work, uncertainty, and experimentation.

Feedback is not about judging whether your writing is good enough. It is about helping you see what is alive in the work and where you might want to go next.
