Frequently Asked Questions:
Will a recording of the sessions be available to me? No. This is an emergent process from the human beings in attendance.
Will I learn what I want to learn in this work with you? You don't need me to learn anything. This is an opportunity to open your arms and engage in a process with many possibilities. When you attend and attune to the group, you create with me, with us.
Will I receive the craft handouts/lessons if I cannot attend the session? Absolutely!!
Will you be offering more classes/sessions at another time? I don't know. This is what I have the capacity for right now.
Can I make up a session if I miss it? I'm happy to schedule a one-on-one session with you for the first missed session. I'll engage in an extensive e-mail discussion of your process/your work/whatever is emerging for you for a second missed session. If you miss a third session, I'll send you a package of care-taking strategies for Being a Writer. Most importantly, I'll ask you to be gentle and kind with yourself no matter the context in your life situation. Being a Writer and Becoming Who We Want to Become looks different for each of us.
With much love,
Mar'ce
