What is Wild Writing?

It’s wild as in natural, free flowing, without artifice or ego. It’s a practice that helps unblock and illuminate. It is intimacy with strangers who become valued supporters. It is listening, writing and reading aloud. It is beautiful in its simplicity and wonderful in its impact.

Who can be a Wild Writer?

Wild Writing is for anyone who is on their journey - to be a better thinker, writer, artist, creator of any sort. A better leader, team player, listener, supporter. Wild Writing is for anyone who believes that self-awareness is the key to success in life.

How does it work?

We'll meet weekly (online) in a small group. We bring nothing but an openness to listen and respond. We use poetry as a prompt and then we write for 10-15 minutes, pen never leaving the page. We push down the inner-critic and we welcome what arises. We listen graciously to what each person has written. We never judge, but we always support.

About Lorna French

"I am the author of 8 contemporary romances that have been translated into over 15 languages and sold worldwide. I believe that the stories we tell ourselves and others today are as important as myths and fairy tales were to our ancestors - and I am passionate about helping others find the true note of their soul, through writing.

Writing and teaching were held in a careful balance for the first half of my life and now that I am most definitely in the second half, I proudly reclaim the Teacher archetype, as a commitment to personal development, continuous learning and sharing wisdom with others.

As a certified Wild Writing teacher, I lead small groups of (mostly) women to let loose their wild side, to dive in to their unconscious and find their buried treasure. Wild Writers are creatives or public sector workers or teenagers or any other type of human who is boldly and often messily transforming on their hero’s or heroine’s journey.

I continue to support leaders in the public sector, helping them to bring their best selves into work that can sometimes seem overwhelming. And of course, I continue to write reports, emails and novels, poems and my weekly salve - Wild Writing responses to beautiful poetry, with my beautiful students. Join us!"
