WritingYourLifeStorySeries:

This is a 12 week course divided into 3 monthly sessions. You can take them in any order. This course will take you step by step into the process of memoir writing. We will discuss the people, places and events that shaped our lives. Each week we will do in class writing as well as writing to be completed for the next week. We will begin with forming your mission writing statement all the way through to publishing options.

TheMemoirist’sEssaySeries:

This is an 8 week course divided into 2 monthly sessions. You may take them in any order. Each week we will focus on a different aspect of a memoirist’s essay including contemplative, personal, spiritual, etc. This workshop will guide you in the art of contemplating and writing. Annie Dillard has written of the essay form:

“There’s nothing you cannot do with it; no subject matter is forbidden, no structure is proscribed. You get to make up your own structure every time, a structure that arises from the materials and best contains them. The material is the world itself, which, so far keeps on keeping on.”

HealingHeartWorkshop:

This is a 4 week workshop that will focus on the power of writing and letting go. The goal of this workshop is to help you write your truth. We will explore how to write about unresolved conflicts, healing past hurts and finding value, meaning and inspiration for your life. You will find that writing will put you on a path to a deeper and greater healing than you ever thought possible.

LegacyWriting:

This all new legacy class will open up your experiences even deeper. Instead of spending one week writing about childhood experiences each section will dive into four weeks of discovery. Each topic will consist of a 4 week focus:

  • childhood
  • adolescence
  • parenthood
  • marriage/middle adult
  • later adult

(Each of these will consist of a 4 week workshop.) This class will spend the majority of the time writing and sharing our experiences with each other. If you like to spend time writing and sharing — these workshops are for you!

Reflections:

This class happens twice a month on Fridays. See calendar for dates. The reflections class will give us the opportunity to reflect. It will be a time to touch or stand back from, or even hover above stories told and untold. Anais Nin says: “We…write to heighten our own awareness of life. We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospection. We write to be able to transcend our life, to reach beyond it…to teach ourselves to speak with others, to record the journey into the labyrinth.”
