I’d like to start one, and possibly a series, of writing workshops. Right now, there are lots of opportunities open for writing:
- Our Area newsletter
- The Forum
- Al-Anon Faces Alcoholism
- The new CAL about intimacy
- The new daily reader
Some ideas of things to write about:
- A Step Two experience
- What it was like to be a newcomer
- How my HP differs from my previous understanding of God
- How something I observed in the natural world relates to my recovery
- How something I observed can be a metaphor for a principle of recovery
- How a relationship changed as I began applying program tools
- How a particular activity is different now with new perspective
- What it is like to be a sponsor
- What it is like to have a sponsor
- Ways that the amends process surprised me
- How any of the steps surprised me
- How service affected my recovery
- How sponsorship affected my recovery
- How working the steps affected my recovery
- What it was like to accept the opportunity to share my story as a speaker
- What specific benefit(s) I received from working a particular step
- A favorite slogan and ways that it helps me
- How a particular meeting format (speaker, step study, newcomer, spiritual, etc.) works especially well for me
