Writing from The Heart

"Writing from The Heart" is a workshop on creative writing, creative drawing, and creative drama. There are three available versions of this workshop: one for beginners on the secondary, tertiary, and graduate levels, and another for practitioners. A third version of this workshop is designed as an outreach program to disadvantaged and underserved audiences such as the disabled, the poor and the marginalized, victims of human trafficking, battered women and abused children, drug rehabilitation center residents, child combatants, children in conflict with the law, prisoners, and gang leaders. This third version incorporates creativity and problem awareness, conflict resolution, crisis intervention, trauma therapy, and peacemaking.

Very frequently, I see publishers gathering for glitzy occasions as though they were international book magnates from London, New York, and Melbourne.

Is this not just an illusion, considering that, if you audit their sales, most of their bestsellers are romances, horror paperbacks, and textbooks--a far cry from the level of sophistication they really should be achieving?

Where did they copy this template from? High fashion?
