All Parts Are Welcome - Annecy Báez

Welcome to Inksite.

Inksite is a space devoted to writing, reflection, and listening to the inner life. It brings together creative practice, dreamwork, and contemplative approaches that support curiosity, care, and connection.

One of the frameworks that has shaped this work is Internal Family Systems (IFS). Over the past several years, my engagement with IFS has influenced how I listen, write, and make meaning. IFS offers a way of understanding the inner world as composed of many voices, sensations, and perspectives, all held within a deeper capacity for awareness and compassion.

Rather than approaching creativity as something to produce or perfect, this work approaches writing as a form of listening. Writing becomes a way to notice what is present, to give language to inner experience, and to stay in relationship with it. This orientation allows imagination, memory, and feeling to move with more freedom and less force.

This way of listening informs some of the writing practices and workshops shared through Inksite. At times, this may include reflecting on inner voices, states, or experiences as they arise in the writing process. At other times, it may involve staying close to an image, a line, or a fragment of a story and letting it unfold in its own time.

To begin, take a few moments to sit with these questions.

What does it feel like when you are most present with yourself?

When do you notice a sense of steadiness, clarity, or openness, even briefly?

How does you're writing, or creative work change when you approach it with curiosity rather than urgency?

You are welcome to reflect privately, or to share what feels right. This space values respect, patience, and the understanding that each person’s relationship with creativity and inner life is their own.

Thank you for being here.

About Me

I am an educator, psychotherapist, and writer, and the author of My Daughter’s Eyes and Other Stories. My work is grounded in a long-standing interest in creativity as a way of listening to the inner world.

Through writing, reflective practice, and approaches informed by Internal Family Systems and expressive writing, I explore how attention, imagination, and compassion can support personal meaning and creative life. I am especially interested in how writing and creative practices can offer space for connection, care, and quiet transformation.
