Welcome to Writing with the Seasons
‘Writing with the Seasons’ is a collection of writing prompts, ideas and inspiration that follows the seasons, month by month. A seasonal guide for writers reflecting the rhythm of the natural world—best enjoyed slowly as the year unfolds.
It’s brought to you by Write & Shine and written by me, Gemma Seltzer. I’m excited to share with you my love of seasonal writing and my experiences as a writer, facilitator and coach.
I’m so delighted to move into the second year of 'Writing with the Seasons.’ For 2023, we'll offer brand new audio writing courses and guest essays from poets and artists— plus all kinds of delights to make you pause, reflect and wonder during the year.
Consider this your gentle guide to finding inspiration from everyday life and the seasons, while exploring the craft of writing and deepening your commitment to the creative path.
You can join Writing with the Seasons as a monthly subscriber (£3.50), or for a full year with a special annual price of £35.
The seasonal essays are for paid subscribers only. However, we’re glad to share our seasonal reading lists and a selection of our audio courses with all subscribers.
I’ll publish a new post on the first and third Friday of each month, sent directly to your email inbox. Subscribers can also log in to the website to read the updates, archives and other posts as soon as they are published.
