Improvisational Writing Series
First Thursday of each month at 1 pm Eastern Time, 2024
When was the last time you experienced the sheer joy of writing? Improvisational writing is designed to take the work out of writing, leaving only the delight of creativity. Each 2- or 3-minute exercise starts with a common prompt, and then everyone starts writing without paying attention to grammar, spelling, punctuation, logic, or all the other “rules” that have been used to take the fun out of writing. The BK Author group invites you to a series of no-cost Zoom-based sessions, designed to make writing fun again.

Attendees are invited but never required to share what they created.
Participants report that the practice of improvisational writing frees up energy and promotes creativity. Most of all, it makes writing fun again.
The BK Authors group invites you to register for a series of no-cost Zoom-based improvisational writing sessions. Each session will be about 45–60 minutes in length and will be hosted by BK author John Kador.

You may attend as many or as few of the sessions as your schedule allows.
