Hello Writers! Just a little note to remind you that our next flow pod is happening tomorrow (Weds, 7pm GMT). I'm so looking forward to catching up with you, those who can make it, and I hope the rest of you are out there being inspired and getting into some sort of flow state when life allows it! Can't wait to hear what you've all been up to! See you tomorrow! Love Kate x

I'm loving this little group so much. Hearing about your writing endeavours - your trips and travels, author events, stories you're writing or publishing - it's all so juicy and inspirational. I love taking notes, reading your stories and following your journeys. I'm glad you're here. That is all! :-)

Welcome Writers! With the recent passing of Dolly Parton, our conversation starter for Wednesday 2nd September will be inspired by the singer songwriter. Our topic (if you look under 'classroom') was going to be, 'When do you feel most in flow?' Well, it seems that Dolly was pretty good at getting into flow state! She was famously prolific and apparently made a promise to herself to write something every day. And here’s the bit that's really impressive... She may have written 'Jolene' and 'I Will Always Love You' in the same incredible creative burst. 🤯 Can you imagine having a writing day where you produced not one, but two of your greatest works?! That is the sort of thing I think about when we talk about 'Flow' here in the Pod. 🐬 Those extraordinary moments when you're totally in the creative zone. The words are coming. You're absorbed. Time disappears. And you're writing almost effortlessly. 🌊 So I’d love to know... ✨ Have you ever had a writing day where you got completely into the flow? What do you think helped you get there? And, because we have to talk Dolly... 🎵 Are you a fan and, if so, what's your favourite Dolly Parton song? 💗 Mine is 'Jolene' - which, funnily enough, features in my summer camp novel, THE LAST SUMMER OF US, at a pivotal moment! Tell us your favourite in the comments. Love Kate x P.S. 📚 Dolly was also an author, a huge fan of books, and a passionate advocate for literacy too. Through her Imagination Library, she has helped get over 300 million free books into the hands of children around the world. What an incredible legacy. 💗📖

Hello Writers! Just a quick note to wish you all a lovely weekend, wherever you are in the world! 🌍 I look forward to meeting up and sharing our creative progress on Wednesday! (7pm GMT) Happy writing! ☺️ Love Kate 🐬
