SUMMARY:Write Yourself into Main Character Energy
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Marlena “Zen Ase” Johns\nTIME: Three Sundays\, June 2\, 9\, 16\, 11:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. CDT\nPRICE: Early bird price: $120 for members\, $140 for nonmembers. The deadline for early bird pricing is Monday\, June 27. After Monday\, June 27: $140 for members\, $160 for nonmembers. Become a member here. Apply for a scholarship here.\nLOCATION: Writespace\, 1907 Sabine Street\, #125\, Houston\, TX 77007 (map)\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\nOne theme of The Wizard of Oz is that Dorothy had the brains\, courage\, and heart that she needed all along. It just took a little journey and some challenges to find it.\nOften we act like a sidekick looking for a wizard to save us instead of embodying main character energy and accepting the call to adventure. This workshop will focus on self-reflection and finding your own voice\, using writing exercises and other powerful techniques to strengthen your purpose\, increase your resilience\, and change your perspective. Let’s write your hero’s journey!\nSession 1. Laying the Foundation/Storyboarding. We will use goal-setting\, vision boards\, archetypes\, and other self-reflection activities to explore the hero’s journey.\nSession 2. Drafting a Character Arc. We will use creative nonfiction to “script” our ideal selves\, detailing how this improved self could handle the phases of the hero’s journey and imaginatively exploring what it might take to transform.\nSession 3. Reflection. We will take time to reflect\, revise\, and share our journeys.

SUMMARY:Writing the Past from the Safety of the Present
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Sarah Gajkowski-Hill\nTIME: Sunday\, June 2\, 3:00–6:00 p.m. CDT\nPRICE: Early bird price: $45 for members\, $60 for nonmembers. The deadline for early bird pricing is Monday\, May 27. After Monday\, May 27: $55 for members\, $70 for nonmembers. Become a member here. Apply for a scholarship here.\nLOCATION: Online via Zoom\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\n“Anybody who has survived his childhood has enough information about life to last him the rest of his days.” – Flannery O’Connor\nIn times of uncertainty\, and certainly since the pandemic\, writing our stories can prove more painful than we have bandwidth for. We may find ourselves avoiding writing altogether or writing too sporadically to make real progress. Thankfully\, there are ways through this kind of writer’s block\, and this workshop is about finding those ways through simple sensory-guided memory writing.\nThe instructor will walk participants through exercises designed to help writers tell their stories from the safety of the present. From paying careful attention to the senses to casting a deep net for positive\, cherished memories\, we will attempt to articulate the visceral details of a singular time and space while remaining present with our current emotions and surroundings.\nWe will read excerpts from memoirists such as Nabokov and T.S. Eliot\, to Jeannette Walls and Mary Karr\, and many more\, to aid us in crafting our own memoir essays/confessional poetry.\nThe instructor will also touch briefly on rules for editing and revision. Sharing will be done in a safe space and only if one feels comfortable doing so.
