Six Weeks,
Six Senses

Start the new year with creative magic!

This January, awaken your sense of wonder. Meet other writers, follow your curiosity, and challenge yourself to write six new stories in just six weeks—one sense at a time.



Six Weeks, Six Senses is a transformative six-week writing adventure that will awaken all of your senses, spark your imagination, challenge you creatively, and help you write with clarity and presence.

If you’re new to Six Weeks, Six Senses, welcome! If you’ve joined us before, get ready for new clues and fresh inspiration to deepen your practice. This course will guide you to write through the senses of sight, sound, touch, smell, taste, and intuition, helping you cultivate a focused, curious, and creative mindset.

Arrive with intuition and curiosity.
Listen for clues. Write what appears.

Here’s how it works:

Each week, you’ll receive a writing assignment with three story clues: a character, a setting, and a pivotal object. These clues will be paired with one of the six senses—sight, sound, touch, smell, taste, or intuition.

Open your mind, bring your sense of play... and get ready to experience something totally different.

As you write, you’ll use each sense to inspire your scene/story. This process not only helps you craft richer, more sensory-driven stories, but it also brings you into a more present, mindful state.

You’ll also gain access to a private online forum where you can connect with fellow writers, share your work, and discuss the weekly assignments. It’s a welcoming, supportive space to receive feedback, share insights, and grow together as creative writers. You’ll find a diverse mix of genres, styles, and voices in this welcoming and thoughtful space. Plus, it’s so much fun to see how other writers interpret the clues!

Since 2018, thousands of writers have joined this annual creative community project.

Why Join?

Six Weeks, Six Senses is perfect for writers at any stage—whether you’re just starting out or have been writing for years. The story clues are designed to meet you where you are in your creative journey, offering you the flexibility to write in whatever genre or style inspires you.

Six Weeks, Six Senses is a fun and approachable writing course for anyone who loves creative writing. It's a fun, focused, and inspiring way to start the new year and feel alive again.

Writing with your senses is a powerful practice that helps you quiet distractions, reduce anxiety, and boost your focus. The calm, present energy you cultivate in your writing can ripple out into your daily life, helping you stay grounded and connected to the world around you.

Writing with our senses is meditation for active minds.


Of course, it’s an excellent, accessible short writing course that teaches you how to write great scenes.

But the unexpected gift that comes from learning how to write this way is that it awakens your curious and focused state of mind, and this effortlessly brings you into presence. Get ready to experience something totally different! 

Six Weeks, Six Senses is a six-week online writing course that will take you by surprise, in just the right way. 

This is what Six Weeks, Six Senses is all about.

This is the opposite of distraction, and the antidote to anxiety.

In this magical, six-week interactive writing class, you’ll learn how to write with your whole awareness.

You’ll infuse your intellect with intuition.

You’ll feel connected, awake, and clear.

...and you might notice that you feel more alive in your daily life, even when you aren't writing.


You can also invite a friend and write together! (See below for our Bring A Friend program)
