Get Your Creative Juices Flowing This September
Tips & News
We're shaking things up a little here at Tarantula: Authors And Art. As we entered our third year, just before the summer, we are reading, listening, and organically growing our digital magazine and concept, especially since we have a whole new set of subscribers. We will continue to devote two articles to our featured artists, one of which will be an interview. The other is a collection of articles, both short and long, inspired by the featured artist. At the end of the month, we will begin a new "column." More information will be soon available. If you haven't already been following us on Instagram, now is a great time to start because your experience will be enhanced.

This week, we'd like to offer a few suggestions to you:
Have you read the interview with Argentinean Israeli artist Paula Elion yet? No need to worry, there's still time this week to find out why one of our readers said, "Didn't want this text to end:-)" We love it when you interact, so please don't shy away from leaving a message for us.

Our art teacher, artist, and writer,
will shortly launch her own Substack dedicated to teaching art. While we wait for her subscription link, she issued a challenge for all of us in last month's piece Little by Little. Follow her on Instagram to receive a new challenge each week. You might have an entire collection of sketches by the Winter Holiday!
And if you are in Stockholm, there is a rare treat coming to town for the first time, a writing workshop called Sense Writing.
Sense Writing is a groundbreaking neuro-sensory approach to writing that anyone can use to unleash their creativity. Whether you’re a beginner or a longtime writer, Sense Writing allows you to re-imagine writing as both a sensual and intellectual process. Taught and developed by Madelyn Kent, Feldenkrais practitioner and former faculty of New York University/Tisch School of the Arts.
7 & 8 October

"A revolutionary approach to the process of writing" -Yoga City NYC
"Madelyn Kent’s workshop challenged Struggle’s worth and reminded me of the original impulse that led me to make my life about writing.” -The Elephant Journal
Rated as "one of the best creative writing workshops in NYC" by Yelp
In a supportive environment that integrates accessible physical and writing exercises, you will:
*Learn to work with the nervous system to interrupt body and language patterns that inhibit writing
*Find pleasure in all the stages of writing
*Refine your craft
*Complete two pieces of memoir and/or fiction.
(Workshopen kommer att hållas på engelska – men deltagare är välkomna att skriva på svenska.)
