find us IRL: workshops + Events
We’re moving out of our studio and into the community, something we should have done years ago! Find our events and workshops in the Snoqualmie Valley and beyond.
Cards Among Community: card- and letter-writing. Centered on a theme (which you are welcome to abandon) and set up at cool + funky local haunts. You bring a couple ideas of who you might want to write to. We’ll do the rest!
Writing for Wellbeing: did you know that writing can support human flourishing? We’re here to help you start (and continue) journaling, gratitude, and creative practices. Thrive on, writers!
Events will be posted here as scheduled
musings: from our newsletter
AN EXPLORATION OF FRICTION: EFFORT VS EASE

MOVING AT A 🐌 PACE
I was supposed to write this newsletter last week, so I could get ahead of the inevitable fact that I get behind. The days slipped by. I told myself I'd write on Thursday, then Friday, Saturday, and yesterday (Sunday). Now it's Monday, and I'm planning to "newslet" (new verb?) tomorrow and…why did this take [...]
ALLOW ME TO (RE)INTRODUCE MYSELF
If you've been here for a while, you know I've "restarted" a lot. Since 2019, I've created and changed so much about what Pidge Post is, what I think it should be, what I want it to be. I've done the same with my life. 2019 me was geared up to become a "tech entrepreneur" [...]
