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.

Try writing in different parts of your house: in bed, on the floor, at your study desk, in the kitchen, in the dining room, on the front porch overlooking the street, in the garden, even on your toilet seat. Explore the physicality of actual writing. Identify for yourself which condition is most conducive to writing.

What works for you will work for you alone, and not for other writers.
