I am thrilled to bits in announcing my very first giveaway. Ever!!
As many of you know, a while back I took the course
Write Now with Amanda, author of the blog
the Habit of Being and creative director of the literary magazine
Kindred. Amanda is not only a gifted writer, but a talented editor and teacher as well. Under her tutelage, I feel that I learned so much about my own writing, creative and otherwise, and I wish for others to have the opportunity to work with her as well. This is why I am giving a way one spot for her upcoming course of
Write Now which begins October 21st. This is the last one that will be offered until after the New Year.
I want reiterate, that I took the course out of a longing, not to become a "Writer," but to deepen my practice of writing/journaling/blogging in hopes of finding avenues to creatively stretch myself; that wish was oh-so fulfilled! However, what I find ever so wonderful about having taken the
Write Now course, is that amidst all the hustle of three boys and their busy fall scheduling, I am still finding time to write; time to scrape out words across paper, journal a bit of my feelings, and work out matters of the heart and longings of the soul.
Don't be intimidated. Don't think this is a course where the teacher will pull you up in front of class to mock your essay or jest at your words. Instead, think of it as a place where you can safely try putting some of your thoughts
into words A place where you can safely begin a daily practice that is just for you -a space apart from your day to day. I think of it as a place for us Creatives, us folk who are learning to tell their own story; who are trying make the intangible, tangible; who want to record the memorable, in all its glory and defeats.
