Craft Talk & Co-Work with Permission to Write
Permission to Write is a series that combines writing instruction and dedicated creation time. Each session begins with a 30-minute craft talk—sometimes featuring invited guests—followed by a full hour of focused writing time. Whether you're developing an existing project or starting fresh, this series provides both structure and inspiration. Weekly prompts will be available for those seeking direction, but you're welcome to bring your own works-in-progress.
Bi-weekly at Sip & Sonder Inglewood for 3Q 2025.
