Hi friends!
Valley here, just back from a magical 11 day adventure in Sedona. Above is one of the trees I met at the Peace Park where my partner Shey helped build the Stupa—an incredible structure that gave me the same sensation as the sacred sites I visited in Mexico and Peru.
While I was gone, something I’ve been dreaming about for years has finally begun to come together. Writing Fire — our sacred gathering place for writers who want to go beneath the surface, access the subterranean story network, and transform their lives through the alchemy of words — now has a permanent home on Skool.
This is the place where we stay connected between our live circles, share our writing, support each other’s journeys, and keep the fire burning all year long. It’s for writers who are done waiting for permission to tell their truth, who crave real community around their creativity, and who know that their story — exactly as it is — deserves to be told.
The doors open officially TODAY, 6/26/26 at our Writing Fire Ignition Party (12pm EST / 9am PST) and I would love to welcome you in as one of our very first members. Here’s how to join:
🔥 Free Member — Come in, explore, join our free offerings, and feel the fire for yourself. Always free, always welcome.
🔥 Founding Firekeeper — $33/month — Lock in this special founding rate forever by joining before my birthday on July 18th. You’ll have full access to everything unfolding inside the community as it blooms and grows.
🔥 Community Member — $44/month — The standard membership rate after July 18th, still a beautiful and abundant exchange for everything you’ll receive.
The link to join goes live tomorrow at 12pm EST during our Ignition Party — I’ll see you around the fire. 🌟
Join the Writing Fire Skool Community!
In these intimate and transformative writing activations, we gather in sacred space to awaken the power of our handwriting, our voices, and our stories. Through writing rituals, guided reflection, and simple energy work, we access the subterranean story network—the deep place within where memory, intuition, and truth live beneath the surface. Through the power of community and connection we create a heat and an energy that allows writing to flow freely through our pens. We may discover not only the story we came to write, but the guidance we most needed to receive. Join us around the writing fire.
Look at the magic wand I found in the woods by the river!
Join me at the beautiful river house where I’ve been given the opportunity to spend the summer, for a special in-person writing activation ceremony! We’ll enter a sacred circle to travel through body, mind, and spirit, connecting into the subterranean network where our stories live.
Free-writing, stream-of-consciousness, poetry, prayers, mantras, powerful activations, written meditations, and affirmations are all instruments for spellcasting and shaping our worlds.
Through simple but powerful practices such as energy work, guided meditations, the chakra system, and oracle cards, we’ll dive deep into our own mythologies, archetypes, and visions for the future.
