Take a journey into writing practices as we leave the inner critic at the door and keep our hands moving across the pages of our notebooks. Maybe you’ve started a memoir only to realize it’s more about the facts of your life and less about the soul of your life, the things that really matter. This program includes teaching, reading, small group and individual work, and time to quiet the mind with periods of silence and meditation. No writing experience necessary.
