Writing Nature + Magic 2026

Writing Nature + Magic is a soulful, elemental journey through earth, fire, water, and air – blending creative prompts, readings, meditations, and practical gathered wisdom from bestselling authors, to deepen your connection with the natural and the mystical.

This course explores the practical magic of:

• ✍ Developing a nature-inspired writing practice rooted in the four elements.
• 🌿 Learning to see the natural world through a magical lens.
• 🔥 Working with prompts to unlock creativity and deepen intuition.
• 💧 Discovering sensory writing and seasonal storytelling techniques.
• ✨ Gaining inspiration and guidance from two bestselling authors.

Featuring 2026 Guest Teacher: Molly Remer

Rituals of Returning: the Magic of Place: Explore your own sacred relationship to the land and how it can hold, nurture, and inspire you with a living, embodied, experience of fundamental belonging. We will look at creating power spots, about connecting to the wisdom of the earth, and about dedicated writing practice as a portal of communion and presence.

Rituals of Returning: Poetry and Practice: In this session, we will explore making space for the sacred and yourself in your everyday life, as it is, with poetry as a practice, a process, and a prayer. In addition to "theapoetics" (connecting with the divine through poetry and language), we will also explore "inscendence"--the concept of crawling INTO and living from the heart of life rather than the more commonly promoted concept of "transcendence" (rising above).

I have admired both Lucy & Sarah for a long time, and the opportunity to spend time with them and learn from them and to share with other women was powerful. I appreciate it so very much!

We created this for you…

• 🍂 Are you a nature-lover and long to capture the magic and beauty of the seasons in your words? Whether you are writing social media posts, advertising copy, articles, books or just for the sheer joy of it in your journal.
• 🍂 Are you hungry to get creative, but just never seem to make the time?
• 🍂 Do you want to try writing poetry, but don’t know how to start?
• 🍂 Are you looking forward to your summer holidays, and want something delicious to do?
• 🍂 Are you a fan of the writing of Sarah Robinson, Molly Remer or Lucy H. Pearce and would love to learn to write directly from them, to discover how they imbue their writing with magic?

The Classes:

The four elements are key to both Lucy’s and Sarah’s writing and are the cornerstones of writing about nature and magical practice. Join us for an elemental journey as we learn how to conjure and capture the elements with words.

Dive deep with Lucy to create powerful pieces of poetry and prose in immersive sessions that open space for rich exploration. Then shift energy with Sarah’s shorter sessions, with inspiring writing prompts to spark creativity and connection. Together, the course offers a full spectrum of writing practice — from thoughtful depth to spontaneous inspiration and whimsy!

The profound sense of safety and openness really stood out - both in the live Zoom gathering and the Facebook group, which was the most supportive, creative and respectful online space I've encountered in any course. Lucy has a rare gift for creating an environment where creativity blossoms and sharing feels natural, and sacred. Thank you so very much!
