Day One: Write to Live & Love What You Write

For Writers who are currently writing novels, poems, non-fiction, screenplays, articles or keeping a journal. For Dreamers who know in their bones and in their souls that they have something to say and a story to tell; a book, play, or poetry that has always been inside them and now is the time to write it down.

This workshop goes beyond questions of craft and art to explore the deepest sources of the creative impulse. If followed, this impulse will enhance and even change a person's life and perhaps the lives of others. This workshops is for those who need to free their voices and live the lives they were meant to live through writing.

This workshop is not about creating from the "head" but rather from the heart, the shoulder, the back and the soul.

All levels of writers welcome to join this highly informative, insightful, and experiential day. Bring journal, pen & paper or laptops and begin or continue The Writing Life.

Day Two: Getting the Word Out

For Dreamers & Writers—The publishing world is constantly changing. Participants of this workshop will receive coaching and support for editing, publishing, getting an agent, self-publishing, marketing and promoting.

An old Arabic proverb goes like this, "A person starts out on a journey that takes them 200 years to complete. If they had a good guide it would have only taken 2 days."
