write like your hair is on fire.

April 30, 2012 in VerbTribe

I never knew teaching an online writing class could be such a wholehearted, full-bodied experience.

But it is.

If you are drawn to knowing who you are, where your creativity resides inside you, and what stops you from expressing yourself like your hair is on fire, I hope you will join me for the next VerbTribe online writing class (starts May 16th). Go here for more info!

It may change your life, not just your writing.

Here’s what a few folks had to say about it:

VerbTribe is pure magic. The real kind. The life-changing kind. Conjured from the brilliant mind and boundless heart of Patti Digh, this is, hands down, the BEST way to really get your writing on. Patti’s served up something that’s wildly fun, deliciously different and profoundly effective – a special sauce that dissolves excuses in the blink of an eye, opens doors you never knew existed and gets you in the most gorgeous word-ey groove ever. I felt different by day three. And, really, this is about so much more than writing. VerbTribe has given me new eyes. The awesomeness that I’ve experienced here will stay with me for life. – Fabeku Fatunmise

“After only 8 days, I am remembering WHY I write and HOW I write. The daily work seems so simple and easy, yet it has taken me deep into places I had forgotten and am so glad to be rediscovering. This course is about so much more than just creating a regular writing practice. It is about connection and adventure and exploring our edges, using our words to find the way.” -Ruth Davis

“VerbTribe = 37 days toward building a sustainable writing practice. We’re on day 10. This has already been a game changer for me with most changes having nothing to do with writing. That Patti Digh lets people believe she’s all southern charmy and genteel but she’s an ass kicker of the highest caliber…” -Martha Atkins

Life is short. Write accordingly.

Come, let’s write–and in the writing, learn.

Love,

As someone that participated in Verb Tribe the first I have to say that the testimonials above are dead on, and there is so much more one could say.

Fabeku says: “And, really, this is about so much more than writing. VerbTribe has given me new eyes.”Absolutely! I am not really a writer, and I don’t say that to demean myself. I am a visual artist and I like writing. I journal and write a blog, but have no aspirations to write books or publish. I came to this hoping to improve my blog writing and with no expectations (although I know from experience anything Patti does is awesome). I too was blown away by day 3. Patti teaches one to see, really see, which is what we need to do no matter what medium we use to communicate it. For me it is mostly pictures, and the same applies to writing. WOW!If you are on the fence about taking this course, get off right now. You will not regret it!
