/l/400/428_s.jpg NOVEMBER is  National Write a Novel in a Month
That’s 50,000 words in 30 days!

National Novel Writing Month is a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to novel writing. Participants begin writing November 1. The goal is to write a 175-page novel by midnight, November 30.

In 2004, we had over 42,000 participants. Nearly 6000 of them crossed the 50k finish line by the midnight deadline, entering into the annals of NaNoWriMo superstardom forever. They started the month as auto mechanics, out-of-work actors, and middle school English teachers. They walked away novelists. “

Do you have the courage, and open mind that it takes to compile and complete your creative project? Could you use a little inspiration, motivation, support and community?

Kamala uses break-through technology to support an intimate group of  writers in  manifesting their ideas faster than we ever dreamed possible!

We meet every Wednesday in Aug. 6:30-8:30 in Pacific Beach

Don't Drink The Punch  A Tantric Novel by Kamala Devi

      This edgy book-in-progress is about a spiritual seeker in perpetual pursuit of truth and pleasure (not necessarily in that order.) From the brothels of Bangkok to the Temples of India, we follow a skeptic filmmaker and his hopelessly God-drunk girlfriend through a heart-opening and health-jeopardizing spiritual odyssey.  The book transcends genres of self-help, memoirs, erotica and humor.

/l/1000/1002_s.jpg  Instructions for Dream Journaling:

      This is where you keep your journal by your bedside, and as soon as you wake, you write all impressions, fragments or complete dreams that you recall.  
     Make a special section entitled "Happenings"  in which you take special note of the synchronistic or magical events that occur in your life as a result of this new discipline.
     "By making this effort, you begin to come into conscious communion with parts of yourself that transcend your normal conscious intelligence." Asoka Selvarajah, Ph.D 
      Before you go to sleep, contemplate what you'd like to dream about, or what question you'd like an answer to, and then tell yourself that you WILL remember your dreams.
     If you don't remember your dreams you could:
1. Take Vitamin B to increase dream recall.
2. Set an alarm clock at some point in the night, and write down whatever you recall as soon as you awaken. If the answer is nothing, reset the alarm clock!
3. Drink a lot of water before bed, and write your dreams while sitting on the toilet. ;-)
Start NOW. Have FUN.

 

 

 
 
One of the most profound tools to support personal growth is a journal. Here are two types of journals to help make the unconscious, conscious and promote radical self knowledge.

 

 

Instructions for Morning Pages:

1) Chose the size, color and style that fits your personality.
2) Write daily, preferably immediately after waking, this is when you're conscious mind is closest to your subconscious. Set your Alarm 30 minutes early and make this your morning ritual.
3) Your Journal is private, so DO NOT CENSOR or even edit yourself. Feel free to write about: Emotions, reactions, thoughts, realizations, interactions with people or situations, ideas, dreams, whatever occurs to you when the pen is on the paper.
4) Write longhand.
5) Dont' stop until you've completed 3 pages.

/l/1600/1632_s.jpg Artist's Way Group Forming:

If you're an aspiring artist, don't miss this Awesome opportunity to unblock and blossom into your full expression.

"I walked in with some vague notion of wanting to include art in my life and I walked out a writer.  I walked into a group of strangers feeling lonely and I walked out with close friends feeling loved... I walked in overworked and overwhelmed, and I walked out --aware that all of life is art, that each moment is worth experiencing to the fullest... and writing about. Thank you Kamala.  Thank you Artist's Way."-- Lori Willamson AKA Sathyavani Devi
