Magic is bubbling up here at Laundry Line Divine.

This song has been singing me all week.

I woke up Sunday morning singing it, then as I stepped in to my studio I saw this:

Something surprising was in store for me that day.

Something that is kind of magical. I will write more about it within the next days, but first I must invite you to two events,

aimed solely at increasing the magic in your life.

One is a writing retreat at which I am presenting a workshop called Gathering Words and Warmth on a Winter's Day. Hosted by the International Women's Writing Guild on February 8-19th at the Edith Macy Retreat Center in Briarcliff Manor, New York, it will be a weekend of fire side cocoa and readings, art making and writing with some amazing teachers like Myra Shapiro and Heather Summerhayes Cariou. Here is a link to the event.

The other is an Introduction to the School of the Womanly Arts in Manhattan. I am a five time graduate of that program and the impact it has had on my life is huge.
Here is a link to that event on January 26.

If you have a longing for connecting with other women, if you have a yearning for more joy in your life,
or you'd just like to curl up next to a roaring fire and read me something you've written,
then please consider both of these opportunities for winter magic.

I would love to meet some of my SheWrites sisters at either of these events. I will be at both of these events, with bells on.
Love, S
