Workshops and Retreats
Creative Writing Workshops Tap into your creativity and find your inner voice. Through a variety of exercises you will learn the elements of great writing, gain confidence in your own voice, and create some wonderful pieces of prose. Past participants rave about the spontaneous and creative atmosphere that comes to life. The power of creative writing is immense. Discover what it can do for you. Most workshops take place in Nashua, New Hampshire. Click here to find out my current workshop schedule. What we do at the workshops
In a relaxed atmosphere, we write from a variety of creative prompts, ( I use objects, sounds, smells, phrases.). Participants are encouraged, but never required to share their work aloud. There is tremendous benefit in using your voice to connect with your writing. We share stories, snacks and a unique camaraderie that can only happen when creative spirits unite.
Weekend Writer's Retreats
Retreats take place in the spring and fall. We stay at a quaint country Inns and enjoy a weekend full of peace, relaxation, and amazing creative awakenings. Retreats offer a chance to rejuvenate your mind and renew your energy. Described as a “life changing event” and “the perfect mix of work and play,” past retreats gave participants the inspiration to “go forward fiercely with my sights set on my dreams” and for one, opened up “a fountain of creativity” she did not know she had.
What we do at the retreats
We start the day with a delightful breakfast in the Inn's quaint dining room. We convene in a private meeting room for writing workshops where our creativity comes alive. Generally, the weekend includes plenty of stimulating exercises as well the opportunity to go off on your own if you choose. Retreats begin on Friday evening with a get acquainted time followed by a full day of writing on Saturday. Wrap up sessions take place on Sunday with more thought provoking exercises and a fun group activity before you depart. You will leave rejuvenated and ready to explore your potential. As always, you will be treated to Write Into Your Life surprises and inspirational tools throughout the weekend.
