Subscription Based and Free Writing/Art Groups
Soul Food has a long history of providing free space for artists and writers. You can meet and mingle with older patrons and visit the rooms they had at Soul Food. The Rookery is a creative container which holds the work of Soul Food Cafe Ravens, creative women who have gained their wings by working within Lemuria for an extended period of time.
Newcomers to Soul Food who are WordPress savvy are invited to engage in the Pythian Games and discover the interactive nature of Soul Food. This, the Taverna di Muse,The Temple of Solace and specialty blogs like Once Upon a Midnight are freely available for writers and artists seeking an audience. To go deeper within Soul Food there is now a cost.
In order to remain sustainable the Soul Food Cafe is now offering subscription groups. Two subscription based groups are currently available. Writers or artists wishing to work and be guided by Heather Blakey, and who would like the opportunity to be published in the 2009 Advent Calendar, can join the Serpentine Road or Hestia's Hearth. Read about the benefits of joining one of these groups. Feel free to contact heatherblakey at fastmail.fm for more information about subscribing.
Juicy Journaling With SARK
Make sure to have a copy of SARK's newest book, Juicy Pens and Thirsty Paper, and see Susan's interview with Heather Blakey, the artistic midwife who created the Soul Food Cafe, provides a safe haven and has personally guided the rebirth of so much creativity.
SARK has just launched her newest eProgram, called Juicy Journaling with SARK! It’s a juicy new journey through words, feelings, and fabulously juicy living, and I’m happy to share that I’m featured in the Program as one of the contributors. SARK designed this eProgram to inspire writers of any and all levels to go new places with words. It’s overflowing with multi-media tools to unearth your writing voice and nourish your soul. You can take a look at sample lessons, audio, and more, at: http://www.planetsark.com/JuicyJournaling.htm.
Praise for Soul Food
"I've quietly watched from the sidelines an amazing thing going on over at Heather Blakey's Soul Food Cafe during the last year. This passionately creative woman, writing teacher, mentor-to-many, and non-stop imagineer has pulled off something so significant, so wonderful, so nurturing to writers and artists of all shapes and sizes. I can't even put it into words. So I did the best next thing. I asked Heather to put it into her own words. And still, she shares the wealth. Curious?" by Chris Dunmire 2006
 Heather introduced me to the metaphorical side of my "career life" and led me down a path of deep reflection towards realizing just how meaningful every single detail is.
