Off-Leash Writing is a joyful, liberating process in which you put pen to paper and cut loose. I give prompts, and we write in exuberant ten to fifteen-minute bursts, saying yes to what's coming, surging forward without pausing, fixing, or looking back. The prompts are doorways, opening onto the vast field of your experience and imagination.

“Off-Leash Writing is for the whole self—from the heart, no judgment, within a supportive community. I have been writing off leash continually for two years now—I find it helps me to connect in an authentic way with others in my writing and my life.”
- Carol Moeller, Allentown, PA
Taking Tanya's class has been one of the best decisions I've made for myself in a long time. This experience is amazing and I keep coming back for more. It has made me believe in myself and to have trust in the words that want to come out. …Without Tanya, my stories would still be pulling at my heart, aching to breathe.
- Aaron Schmaltz, Saline, MI
This is such a wonderful, safe place to write as deeply, as shallowly, as thoughtfully, as crazily as the spirit moves you. Tanya chooses wonderful, accessible poems to jump-start your creative process. You know you're never going to be judged, you're just going to let loose and have fun. I think of it as a special treat—you don't have to accomplish anything at all, but you get to write.
- Jean Schiffman, San Francisco, CA
