Tenet insanabile multo scribendi cacoethes An inveterate and incurable itch for writing besets many
Blessings on your retreat and writers' workshop :-)
What Claire said! Also I was delighted to learn in grad school that inclusive language is far from a modern theological and spiritual gift--there is more than one medieval adaptation if the Rule for women's community's which begin "Audi, filia/Listen, O daughter!"
In the Quad, in room 264 I think (but in any case the large room on the second floor), there is a huge calligraphic painting of the prologue of the Rule. You should see it, if you haven't. Its white space, too, holds silences.
I wish I was there…. maybe next year
