About this event
Do you feel the pull to write but aren’t sure where to begin — or how to move forward?
This workshop offers a supportive, skill-building environment where you’ll be encouraged to explore your creativity, develop your writing craft, and gain clarity around your voice and storytelling style.
Through guided writing exercises, practical techniques, and thoughtful feedback, you’ll learn how to shape compelling narratives, create authentic characters, and write with emotional depth. The workshop also provides tools for overcoming common blocks such as self-doubt, perfectionism, and lack of structure or discipline.
Whether your goal is to write personal stories, fiction, or a memoir, this workshop will help you stop procrastinating and inspire you to write with purpose. Think of it as an opportunity to learn, connect with other writers, and refine your writing skills — with guidance that meets you where you are and encourages you to explore the depths of your imagination.
