Gotta a cat under your bed?

The Saturday Spark

Tell us: What’s one “cat” that you’re sitting still and waiting (more or less!) patiently to come to you right now?

Here’s the latest news regarding my work and this online community. Asterisked content (*) is fully accessible only to paying subscribers. Care to support The Raft by upgrading your membership? At less than $5 a month, it costs less than a small bouquet of flowers!

*Starting next Sunday: “The Dig”!

I invite you to “dig” deeper into the current of your own creativity as a writer and benefit from its flow. The last Sunday of each month, I’ll email you a writing prompt. You may respond to it in whatever form tickles your fancy. Learn more and/or sign up for The Dig here.

Next week on The Raft . . .

• Watch for TWO big Raft announcements—the first about October’s Deep Dive, and the other about the launch of “Poets on the Raft”!

• Poetry Pick-Me-Up (Zoom, Thursday, 12-1PM Central). A casual weekly gathering for poetry-sharing, celebration, and discussion. Hop on the Zoom at this link. Bring a poem you like to read to the group. Or, just come to listen to poems offered by other Rafters and to participate in informal but wholehearted conversation. Can’t make it? Watch for the video replay in this newsletter!
