Using a wine inspired framework (think vintages\, notes\, and what develops over time)\, you’ll move through guided writing prompts designed to meet you exactly where you are. No previous writing experience required. No pressure to share unless you want to. Just space to write honestly\, and maybe a sentence or two you’re proud of by the end.
