Get Naked (Emotionally!)

Expose the parts of yourself you're used to keeping under wraps.

Get ready to peel back layers and layers and layers...

AURORE is a sex positive magazine focused on sharing authentic, raw erotica.

AURORE defines intimacy as being clear and comfortable with ourselves, owning our kinks and secrets, and making connections with those truths. Building a trusting and loving relationship with yourself is necessary before you can approach relationships with the same intent. We consider this openness to be vital to writing real erotica, and life in general.

We invite you to reflect, reveal, discover in this supportive erotica writing group.

Bring a notebook, laptop, or whatever you like to write in.

The workshop will be a mix of writing and sharing exercises. There will not be physical nudity, just emotional honesty!

Expect:

• To have your thinking challenged, to reconsider patterns you're stuck in
• To feel slightly uncomfortable, and then incredibly free
• To finish feeling more connected to others and yourself

Doors open at 7:15 PM and close at 7:45 PM. We ask you please try to be on time, you will not be let in late.
