To maintain a safe, confidential space in which to write, we follow certain practices in responding to new writing:

We honor the writer by listening carefully
We experience and treat everything as fiction
We refer to the narrator / speaker, not to the author, as the voice of the piece
We maintain confidentiality, and do not speak of others’ writings outside the group unless the writer of a piece begins the conversation
We remember, while healing often occurs, this is not a therapy group
We are invited to read our work
We respond only with what we like, what stays with us, what moves us – and not with how to make it stronger (new writing which has not been edited is like a baby: it’s vulnerable and easily damaged by negative judgments)
We do not need to respond to every piece
We stick to the writing, avoiding our own anecdotes and asides
As writers, we listen to the responses to our work and do not comment – we don’t want to influence how people respond to our work

In order to change what is, we need to give speech to what has been, to imagine what might be.
