🐝 Dearest gentle reader... Will you join us for a Bridgerton Workshop? (Sat 7 March)
Dearest gentle readers sprites,
What a lovely March we have ahead of ourselves. To celebrate the end of another wonderful and utterly scandalous season (and the start of another), I am told Poetry Orchard is hosting a Bridgerton creative writing workshop.
Like you, I have had the pleasure of witnessing another unraveling of convention.
With it, we are once again reminded that the greatest things in life—love and connection—are always possible if we step out of bounds and class. More so, that the loss of old pains (or a silver glove) can be the gateway to something new.
For a very special edition of Lady Whisteldown (and Poetry Orchard), we shall dip our toes into societal expectations, acceptance, and love.
As always, whilst our writing time may be short, one must remember that diamonds are made under pressure.
Yours Truly—or rather 🦋 Warm Wishes and Butterfly Kisses,
🍒 Blossom 🍓 Maria 🍍 Nashira
From poet to artist, Benedict would enjoy Dorothea Grossman’s words
I have to tell you,
there are times when
the sun strikes me
like a gong,
and I remember everything,
even your ears.
What else is coming to the Orchard?
Ambition Workshop: What it means to have dreams under capitalism
Anti-Brainrot: Recharge, reflect, and recenter
Writing With Color: Color is at the essence of so much expression!
