Ash & Ink: Writing as ritual in times of grief

A free online grief writing gathering

Grief reshapes the landscape of our lives, often leaving us searching for authentic expression, meaning and connection. Ash and Ink is a gentle online writing gathering that invites participants to explore writing as a ritual practice during times of loss, transition, and remembrance.

Through guided prompts, reflective exercises and quiet moments of writing, we will create space to honor what has been lost, witness what remains, and discover what is emerging.

No prior writing experience is necessary – only a willingness to listen inwardly and put words on the page.

Together we will explore how writing can serve as a vessel for memory, a companion for sorrow, and a sacred practice of tending to ourselves and our communities.

This gathering welcomes anyone navigating grief in its many forms, whether recent or longstanding, personal or collective. Participants are invited to write, reflect, and share (if they wish) within a supportive and compassionate online space.

Come as you are. Bring a notebook/journal, a candle and your curiosity for what may emerge when grief is our muse.
