The prompt activates the writing; you just catch it with the page.
ATB-style prompts uncover stories and characters that live inside you and sometimes drop you into a style of writing that’s never before appeared from your pen. Real or imagined, narrative or abstract — it can all happen here.
How the Circle moves:
(1) Write for 10 minutes with the weekly prompt — the beginning of a sentence that jumpstarts your writing.
(2) Read aloud (optional) & listen as others do the same.
(3) Share what you perceive in the writing.
Guided by the Abre Tu Boca Method, developed by founder Amanda Aileen Fisher. Led by Amanda or ATB-trained facilitator Nica Celly.
No RSVP required. Come weekly or drop in any time.
