Writing from The Heart: Just In Case You Still Don't Know

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.

Just In Case You Still Don't Know

We can all go back to text-messaging in ANY CORRECTLY SPELLED LANGUAGE again, and there should be no more excuses not to do so. Years ago our mobile services charged us PER LETTER AND PER SPACE, forcing everyone to abbreviate and truncate their words. All of that is now a thing of the past--you could text entire chunks of War and Peace if you wanted to.

So, laugh out loud. Don't LOL--it makes you a low-budget relic.

Let's communicate with correct grammar and spelling again. It maintains our dignity as writers.
