🌿 Wandering Creative Life Salon – “Post-Retreat Ripples”
Date: Sunday, May 25, 2025 | Time: 2 – 4 p.m. ET (Zoom)
Step back into the cozy circle we created on May 10th and let the ripples of that first retreat carry us forward! This inaugural Wandering Creative Life Writing Salon is a relaxed, queer-affirming space where retreat alumni can:
Show & Tell: Read a page or two of the piece you sparked—or super-charged—during the retreat.
Spotlight Your Other Projects: Bring poems, scene snippets, or brand-new brain-waves that beg for a friendly audience.
Gather Gentle Feedback: Share what kind of response you need (cheers, questions, craft tips) and get exactly that—nothing more, nothing less.
Celebrate Wins & Set Next Intentions: End the session with collective high-fives and a quick goal-setting ritual to keep the momentum rolling.
Flow (2 hours)

All genres, all vibes, all levels of polish are welcome—you, your words, and your brave heart are more than enough. Cameras on or off, captions enabled. Grab your favorite beverage, slip into something comfy, and bring that radiant energy for an afternoon of queer creativity and mutual uplift. 🌈✍️
