CRAFT TALK is a weekly newsletter about writing, creativity and productivity from author Jami Attenberg. This is also the home of #1000wordsofsummer, where, once a year, we write 1000 words a day together for two weeks straight. (In 2025 it begins 5/31!)
Like a meal of small plates, Writing Talk ranges across the good, the bad, and the funny of the writing life. Writing craft insights, ideas on creativity, prompts and exercises, thoughts, opinions, and witterings.
Pour a cup, and pull up a chair! Join veteran educator Mrs. Keskes for learning and laughter in this newsletter for English teachers, creative writers, avid readers, and anyone who loves language. No teaching experience needed!
