Write with Care: Summer 2026

A Summer Writing Practice: June 22 through July 13, 2026

Summer often arrives with the best of intentions: a writing project you’ve been putting off, a manuscript mid-draft, a story you’ve been meaning to start. It can also arrive with fatigue, distraction, and the competing pull of rest. This program is designed to hold space for all of it.

Write with Care is a four-week summer practice for any writer — academic, creative, essayist, or somewhere in between — who wants to make progress on their writing while also learning to care for themselves in the process. Showing up to the page matters, and so does taking care of the person doing the showing up.

Over four weeks, you’ll receive four curated emails and have access to four optional online writing sessions, a gentle, structured container for your summer writing life.


What You’ll Receive

Each Monday, June 22 through July 13, a curated email lands in your inbox with a short reflection on our weekly theme, writing prompts for both process and content, and resources handpicked to support your work and your wellbeing as a writer. The prompts are yours to work through whenever suits you best, and all resources are yours to keep.

You’ll also have access to four optional online writing sessions where you can drop in, set intentions, and write in community. No sharing of work required, no pressure to attend every session.


Weekly Themes

Week 1: Arriving We begin by slowing down. Whether you’re coming in with intentions already formed or starting from scratch, you’ll take stock of where you are and begin to imagine what’s possible in the weeks ahead.

Week 2: Tending to Obstacles Every writer has them. The internal resistance, the external demands, the places where we get stuck. This week we name what’s in the way and begin building a strategy for moving through it.

Week 3: Writing with Care This week turns toward you, the writer. We explore what support and self-care actually look like for you in this season, not as a detour from the writing, but as an essential part of it.

Week 4: Closing and Continuing We close with intention. This final week is about honoring what you’ve done and what remains, and leaving you with what you need to keep going well beyond July 13.


Optional Writing Sessions (all times EST)

Drop in to any or all. We’ll share brief writing goals at the start, then write together in silence. No sharing of work required.
