πΏ Hello From
Writing Well πΏ
Community-focused creative writing well-being group(s), known as "Writing Well", throughout Lincolnshire and beyond. Writing Well are self supported and a charitable arm of Busy Corner Books.
Writing Well is a gentle, encouraging, safe, creative space where words can help us process our thoughts and feelings. Work towards healing, through faith, hope, and connection. Whether you're a seasoned writer, enjoy private journalling or have never written your thoughts and feelings before, you are welcome just as you are.
"Come as you are β you are welcome here."
π Faith-Inspired, Person-Centred π
Hello Everyone,
Writing Well is a person-centred creative writing community. This means we believe every writer carries within them the ability to grow, heal, and flourish, given the right conditions. Our groups are built on kindness, respect, and authenticity - spaces where your voice matters, your story matters, and your pace is honoured.
πΏ
As Founder and Group Facilitator, my role is not to direct or control, but to hold the space: keep it safe, inclusive, and nurture the atmosphere so that courage can grow, followed by creativity.
I provide prompts and guidance, but each person chooses how to respond. Silence, Sharing, Laughter, and Reflection.
Writing Well is also shaped by my own personal faith. My Christian journey inspires the compassion, tenacity, humility, and hope that underpins the group.
But I want to be clear: this is not a religious group, it is my journey that inspired the group. My role is to support and metaphorically hold each individual as you work through your own blockages, reach your truths, and discover the strength of your own inner voice and your own faith - whatever this looks like for you.
If you are interested in Christian faith, I am developing a spiritual writing group to encourage closeness with Father God called ARCLIGHT TM - through the process of writing, feedback and reflection.
At Writing Well, we write to grow, to heal, to connect, and to discover our light within.
Please note, Writing Well is about encouragement and evolving friendships. We are not a therapy group. Some of the exercise may feel therapeutic. Exercises within the ARCLIGHT TM may feel deeply spiritual. However, in this context I am not a psychotherapist or counsellor and Writing Well is not a therapy group. Change can be a cathartic experience.
Looking forward to meeting you.
All the very best,
Paula Anne
