BOISE'S HOT POET CIRCLE
Writing Her Own Truth (H.O.T.)
This is where the wild women gather.
This is for the woman who feels too much.
Who wants more.
Who knows there is a voice inside her that hasn’t fully arrived yet.
HOSTED BY: She Is Poetry Collective, this is a monthly writing circle for women 18+ who are ready to become louder, softer, deeper, braver, all at once.
Every month we enter a new portal:
🔥 Writing poetry that changes you
💌 Love letters & longing
📖 Publishing your first book
🎨 Paint + poetry fusion nights
🗣 Finding your voice
🌿 Healing through words
Every month is different!
🔥 H.O.T. POETS WRITING CIRCLE: THE BODY AS ART 🔥
October’s writing circle is an invitation to turn your life, your body, your identity, and your experiences into art.
This month, we’ll study three wildly different artists and writers who each transformed personal experience into powerful creative work:
🎨 FRIDA KAHLO — self-portraiture, symbolism, pain, identity & turning your life into art
🖤 AUDRE LORDE — voice, power, the body, identity, anger & writing what you're afraid to say
🌹 NIKKI GIOVANNI — intimacy, rhythm, conversational poetry, love & developing an unmistakable voice
We’ll look at their work, talk about the choices they made as artists, and then put those lessons into practice through guided writing exercises.
This is NOT about writing the “perfect” poem.
It’s about getting closer to your own voice.
✨ Expect:
• Poetry & artist study
• Guided writing prompts
• Creative exercises
• Conversation & community
• Time to write
• An opportunity to share your work if you want to
No poetry experience is required. Bring your notebook, your favorite pen, and something you've been wanting to say.
Come write with us. Come make something out of what you've lived.
🔥 H.O.T. = Writing Her Own Truth.

You just need a pulse.

Come alive.
Come write the woman you are becoming.
