THE CODAW CIRCLE
Not Just a Membership.
A Movement.
Let us paint a picture for you.
It’s May 2018. Atlanta. West End.
Queen Sheba makes a random post on Facebook like,
“Hey y’all... I’m leaving my front door open. Writers, come through.”
No mic. No flyers. No plan.
Just a blank Google Doc, an open heart, a few grapes and “grapes” (wink-wink), and some cheese from the local Kroger.
One poet showed up that night.
Then three.
Then ten.
Then fifteen.
Then thirty. Every. Single. Week.
No sound system. No Instagram ads. Just vibes. And 30 minutes of sacred, uninterrupted writing time in a living room that somehow turned into a literary sacred space.
What started as a small idea became something far greater—
The CODAW Circle: Creatives Of the Dynamic Arts & Writing industry.
Now?
We’re international. We’re intergenerational.
We’re introverts, extroverts, ambiverts—Black, brown, queer, questioning, neuro-spicy, and unapologetically brilliant.
And guess what? We saved you a seat.
The CODAW Circle is Queen Sheba’s private community
for poets, performers, and healing creatives building their voice.
— and their business.
-
It’s not just some dusty old writer’s group where everyone tries to out-clever each other with metaphors about teacups.
This is a creative wellness coven meets professional poet collective—a community founded by Queen Sheba:3x Grammy-Nominated Spoken Word-Poet
