An exciting day is coming up on December 11 at the Englewood Center for the Arts, 471 S. Indiana Ave, Englewood, FL:
I will be leading a SoulCollage(R) workshop from 12:30-4:30, followed by a reception and reading from the Writing Through the Senses book. Space is limited at the workshop, so register promptly (contact me for details), but the reception is open to all. Come join us!!!
MY new book!
Discover a fresh approach to creative writing and self-discovery—a way to get beyond the linear mind and awaken other ways of knowing.
By working with writing prompts based on sensory responses rather than language, you will be taken to unexpected and often magical realms. By starting with embodied associations and reactions to color, shape, texture, taste, scent, rhythm and sensation rather than words and concepts, you will tap into rich new potential and allow your deepest inner voice to emerge.
This is not a workbook or simple list of prompts; rather, it is an exploration of the ways sensory prompts work and how to approach them.
It offers both general guidelines about choosing prompts and specific examples of the creative ways writers respond to selected images and other stimuli.
It includes evocative illustrations to help you grasp the concepts and empower you to generate sensual prompts of your own. You will also be empowered by the author’s consistent encouragement and enthusiasm about opening to new levels of discovery.
If you want to write but struggle with self-doubt or get stuck in ruts of overthinking or returning to the same familiar pathways, Writing Through the Senses will help! It offers an enjoyable, effective way of overcoming these limitations and encouraging words to flow out freely. It is suitable for individual writers; for leaders of writing groups and classes; and even for those who do not think of themselves as writers but who are looking for a new way of exploring their intuition.
