Create a fresh piece of written work, dismantle your inner critic, and share your words with a group of like-minded writers.

Hosted by author and creative writing teacher Charlotte Coplin, these specially honed salons use the Gateless Writing method to help enable participants unleash their creativity within.

By allowing Charlotte to create a safe container for your work and by following a specific set of guidelines during the writing salon, the aim of the workshop is to begin to define your inner editor vs. your inner critic, work to dismantle your inner critic within, and, in turn, free your writing strengths to rise and your authentic voice to be heard.

It may sound simple, but spending an afternoon writing from such a place is a pretty profound act in our world of excessive critique. In attending this workshop, expect an eye-opening, enjoyable afternoon that will leave your confidence rising and your words flowing.

Writers of all levels are welcome. Workshops are hosted reguarly between Hollywood, Santa Monica and Santa Barbara.

About Gateless: Gateless is a writing style based on a combination of Zen philosophy and brain science. Developed by author Suzanne Kingsbury in 2008, it is all about overcoming your inner critic and focusing on the positives within your written work.
