What if you could write with others? Make time for checking in, getting feedback, and having peer accountability along the way? This is what we do with our project, Cojournal. We talk, talk together, and talk together over time. New themes emerge as we go. In this way, it keeps on growing and changing. Curious people find their way to our flyers, this page, and to me sometimes in person and we get to talking about how it works that when you show up with others who also are curious and showing up, cool things can happen. We start these conversations: together. In Cojournal. It emerges as we go, so that there’s a good mix of perspectives that help us see things in new ways. International, weekly, and conversation-led: That’s what this is about. Curious? Sure thing, most welcome to find out more. As always, the first step is to apply. Apply at kismuth.com/apply2026.
