"In the old days, people knew how to dream. They did not have to go to sleep first." -- Friedrich Nietzsche
Writing is a full body/mind experience. Join us and discover new ways to write and live with your senses. As a small group, we will explore the physical and intuitive senses by using exercises, visual aids, traditional and non-traditional forms (meditation, writing exercises, group improv work) to generate new ideas in a supportive, collaborative space. We will work to heighten all of our senses to bring out new writing from deep within. You will learn how to begin trusting your intuition, write your way through fear and set personal and professional goals for your writing that can carry over into all areas of your life. Leave with ideas and resources to continue on your own at home and in your own writing community.
"Colours are the deeds and sufferings of light." -- German poet and dramatist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
