October Newsletter
October has been a month of gathering and deep connection, helping us come together in more loving community and finish the projects we began earlier this year. We completed and released our fourth Noon Miracle anthology, Grieving Out Loud, at the start of this month, sharing the profoundly beautiful, honest, and vulnerable work of eight magnificent authors with the world.
We also saw Levi Alexander’s Structure Lab: Outline reach its conclusion, with another cohort ready to develop their outlines into feature-length screenplays. Levi will be back early next year for another round of Structure Labs. If you weren’t able to join us this time around, put it on your holiday wish list!
To ground us in November, Samantha White will be facilitating a two-part workshop starting next week, Saturday, November 7th. From Reactive to Responsive is a brand-new offering helping us get out of our heads and into our bodies. By understanding how we stay locked in old scripts, we learn how to start rewriting them for a life that feels more peaceful, stable, and creatively empowered. Samantha brings a decade of relational neuroscience training and a wealth of compassion to these sessions, gently supporting the transformation into a freer, happier way of life. The profits from this event are pledged to the Noon Miracle Campaign to continue to provide scholarships and additional community support.
The following week, Amy Ferris returns for her final workshop series of the year: Transforming Our Mistakes Into Our Mission. This prompt-based workshop is built around the idea that mistakes are merely an opportunity to reframe our perspective and see the pivot points of our lives through new eyes. Like a phoenix from the ashes, we will rise to meet this fresh life. Spaces are limited, and class is half-full, so sign up now (or apply for your scholarship) before it’s too late!
In the coming months, we are also looking forward to returning to our original intention with Noon Miracle: to create a space for art that inspires to be shared more widely. In this mission, we rely on you, our gorgeous and talented community.
Do you have a script or scrap of poetry to share? Have you returned to your easel to see how playing with oils or watercolour or acrylic might ease the soul? Is there a song in your heart that you think others need to hear? We welcome all of it.
In a world that is growing increasingly overburdened with stories that make us all feel a little helpless, let us remind you of this powerful truth: you can always bring back the light. A line of poetry shared with a friend. A silly doodle in the margins of a letter. A few bars of a song that never fails to make people smile. Our art speaks to the soul, restoring hope and breathing a little joy back into life. We bring back the light by honoring the power we have to inspire and uplift those around us.
Keep creating. It heals you. It heals us all.
We have a couple more announcements coming in the next few weeks, so keep your eyes on your inboxes for exciting updates!
Wishing you a novel November,
❤ The Noon Miracle Team
