Write into the Heart of Your Story (registration open)

A 2-week online course for writers at all levels

Updated 11/18/13: Registration for this session is now closed.

I'm giddy to share my newest online offering with you. I taught a condensed version of this class last weekend at the Soul Sisters Conference, and I'm delighted to offer the full version online.

Writing the stories of your life is about more than recording a series of events. It's about creating meaning and connection.

Whether you're writing blog posts, essays, a memoir, or in your journal, how do you write beyond what happened and into the heart of a story?

In this 2-week online course, we'll explore ways to write into the heart of your story using prompts, exercises, and techniques that you can use again and again.

What the Course Includes:

  • Daily posts sent to your email inbox with that day's content
  • A lovely mix of instruction and inspiration
  • Writing prompts to discover your stories
  • Exercises to explore your personal creative process
  • Techniques to dive deeper into your story's meaning
  • Resources to keep the momentum going
  • An optional, private community space to connect with other participants (housed on Facebook)

Registration: $27.00

{Update 11/18/13: Registration is now closed for this session. The next session is scheduled for February 2014. Please join my mailing list to stay in the loop.} 

Questions? Answers!

What do I need to take the course?

You'll need an email address and an Internet connection. (You might like to have a journal or notebook that you use for the course, or you might prefer to write on your computer or typewriter.)

Do I have to have a Facebook account to participate?

Nope! The private community group on Facebook is totally optional. The group will be private, so only course participants will be able to see the contents and posts in the group.

I'm not a writer. Is this course for me?

Yes! If the idea of writing stories from your life appeals to you, this course is for you. We'll use a variety of prompts and exercises that are accessible and no-stress, whatever your writing experience.

I am a writer. Is this course for me?

Yes! Even if you've been writing for awhile, the practice of digging deeper into your stories will be useful. I'll be sharing techniques that significantly improved my own writing when I learned them after years of being a writer.

I just registered. I am super excited for this class! As I read your posts about the workshops you offered last weekend I was wishing I had been able to be there and listen to your stories. Thank you for offering this now
