The Blooming Book Club vs Writing Identity

Wonderful community if you like books

I love reading and being around others talking about reading recommendations and what we learned from the books we have read is great. It's always fun to exchange ideas.

The Blooming Book Club is a space to connect with others who enjoy reading and growing!

Emma has created a lovely corner to grab a book and dive in ~ and she values the opinions of others. She encourages us to read and then share our big takeaways! I value her ability to create a picture of a blooming garden and we are the flowers! Growing day by day! Emma is very patient and doesn't pressure us to keep up with the rigor of an in-person book club meeting. Love this community!

Amazing Community and Mentorship

Alli has created something really special in The Village. Between the daily prompts, classroom, weekly zoom calls, and her 1:1 mentorship; it is a space where I feel free to be myself, write ugly without judgment, and feel genuinely supported and encouraged to hear my own voice again. I have been working 1:1 with Alli and have learned so much about myself. She has helped me put words to things I had been feeling for a long time but wasn’t able to explain. She has created and shared tools to help me work through my emotions and finding myself again. Alli has been so thoughtful, supportive, and intuitive from the very beginning, and I feel truly seen and understood. I highly recommend Alli and her community!

Alli Gatlin knows what she's talking about

Alli Gatlin knows what she's talking about. Her journaling advice and written prompts are excellent, but what proved even more valuable to me was talking with her one-on-one. The combination of encouragement and plain-spoken truths she delivered allowed me to overcome the worst of my self-doubt and really embrace a sense of confidence. Highly recommend.

Alli is a professional writer and a great person!

Alli is a professional writer and a great person! We're not only learning to write, overcoming writing anxiety, but also having fun in the community. Alli is a great person to be around!
