Paris France: Memoir Writing Workshop 
February 25 to 28, 2024

A Writing Workshop that kickstarts your creativity on the page.
Have you ever wanted to fly on the page with your writing?

You'll get started in a daily writing practice or plunge deeper into creative renewal with your writing even if you've never picked up a pen before.

Do you struggle with trying to write every day?


You'll learn how to write from your heart and express yourself. How?

Even if you've never done meditation before you'll notice a difference in how it vividly influences your writing.

Don't worry! It's all about showing up and melting into the practice and then writing.

​Suddenly you'll be cooking with gas on the page and you might even change your life. 

Who am I? 
You'll benefit from my 25-year writing practice and 5 books published on Amazon. Teaching  worldwide and at Whidbey Writers Workshop, Gig Harbor Writers workshop, private workshops in Mount Shasta and at Stanford Univestiry, Apple Computer, and Intel.

Here's what Shirley McClintock said about her experience in Oaxaca City this week with me,
"You did it again. You knocked it out of the park. Beautiful city, great food, good company, and wonderful instruction. You have those leadership qualities that we all wish we had.
​I learned more about composition and what makes a great photo. You have certainly found your calling and excel at it."
