The essence of Kitchen Table Writing is to allow the pen to guide. Let whatever comes out of your hand, your pen, hit the page. Kitchen Table Writing is meditative, a time for praise, anger, delight; a time to begin your next chapter, develop a character, sort out a challenge, or describe the tree outside your window. Free your writing spirit and let what needs to come through your subconscious erupt on the page.
One Soup Kitchen Writer described this kind of writing as a time to “get clear.”
A CIPA member, surprised at what he had written, exclaimed,
"It's the pen's fault!"
"I
look forward to working with Anne at each Santa Fe Screenwriting conference,
and now working with her online. She is warm and encouraging and very good with
both the art and craft of writing. The most wonderful work just pops out of my
pen when I work from Anne's prompts, in the trusting, supportive atmosphere she
creates."

I spent last weekend in Denver at an
independent publisher conference. Though I was a speaker, I had an opportunity
to sit in on a two hour writing seminar lead by Anne Randolph, an excellent writing
coach. blog.SoupKitchenWriting.com
Anne led us through three exercises and the first was to
write for five minutes starting with the word
"unfamiliar." Eric Kampmann, President www.MidpointTradeBooks.com
The
comments from Eric K spotlighting your skills and workshops were well
deserved. Good for you!
