In this workshop, it won’t take you long to fill the pages of your journal with ideas, and drafts of your personal stories. A set of proven creative tools make it easier for you to tap into your creativity. You know your writing skills are improving because of the feedback. By watching others make mistakes, experiment, play, and take risks, you give yourself permission to write about things you never thought you would. Slowly, you let go of inhibitions, and worries about what others will think — at least until you’re done writing. And then you read what you’ve written during the class out loud. When you hear someone laugh, or see a tear in someone’s eye. if someone says they can relate to your story — you feel inspired to write more.
The proven creative tools and safety guidelines make it easier to enjoy writing more and better.

LIVE WORKSHOP SCHEDULE
It will be roughly broken down into three sections:
Meditation: Practice letting go of outside considerations. Get into the moment. Listen for your own voice. Allow.
Warm Up Game: Play. Experiment. Get curious. Ask questions. This is your chance to get into flow. Practice using elements of writing or storytelling craft to create writing based on your own life (fiction or non-fiction.)
The Main Stage: In this second half of each class, create new writing or story. If you are already working on a memoir, flash fiction, essay, autobiography, book outside of class, you may want to write with that in mind. If not, then allow yourself to be guided by your own intuition.
