Sometimes we live through a series of events that leave us disoriented. Or life hands us a situation we haven't quite digested yet. Help is on the way, in the form of a one-day, IN PERSON writing intensive on Thurs., May 23 that'll use a series of inspiring writing exercises to ground you and help you accept and reframe your life.

You'll walk away with some gorgeous scenes written about yourself (or that of your fictional character,) and a fresh outlook on your life.

Using great scenes from literature to guide us, we'll warm up with a quick list of the karmic dominoes that fell to paint our character (or ourselves) into a particular place. Then we'll focus on one incident that was particularly formative for us and our world view.

THIS CLASS IS PERFECT FOR WRITERS OF ALL LEVELS AND ALL GENRES. We'll meet Thursday, Oct. 16 from 9-3 at my east Boulder County studio. The address will be provided a few days before we gather. If you need some addresses for local AirBnbs, I can provide those. Plus there's a lot of hotels close by.

After our lunch break, we’ll focus on our own desire for freedom and power. Using another great scene from literature, we'll write this in as much glorious detail as possible. You’ll walk away having observed your dilemma (or your character's) in detail, and your spark of hope will be brighter than ever.

I'll send a scene I'd like you to read before we gather, so we can spend as much time as possible writing, sharing & renewing!

The $210 class fee functions like a concert ticket. It's nonrefundable, but if you can't come, you can give it away to a friend.

In the emails you'll receive after you register, look for an attached scene I'd like you to read before we gather, so we can spend as much time as possible writing!

I hope you'll join me!
