Writing Workshop
Thursday, September 18th, 2008passed along by Melba Burns:
WANT TO WRITE?
“Education is not the filling of a bucket but the lighting of a fire.” W.B. Yeats
This writing group will light your fire!
Ever thought you could write a book — but have no idea how to start?
Want to get re-motivated on that story that’s been flitting through your brain?
What about all those experiences your friends keep telling you to write about?
You say? “Oh, later… One of these days, I’m too busy right now…I need more time.”
What about NOW?
· You will be re-motivated to write that book or story
· And achieve the goals you set for yourself.
· You will let go of blocks to your creativity.
· You’ll begin to trust that what you want to write you can, &
· You’ll gain more confidence in your writing.
· You’ll learn to write amazing characters too.
· You’ll be in a community of supportive, like-minded people.
· You’ll get to read at a literary cabaret.
· You will have the opportunity to be published on my new website.
· I invite you to join us in a great Writing Workshop.
It will nurture your soul and you’ll be amazed at your own creativity!
