Writing Seminars and Retreats There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you. Maya Angelou |

Are you thinking about writing your story? Do you start writing then get stuck? Do you feel you could use some support? Has your partner been nagging you to write that book already but you just don't know where to start? Whether in an on-line teleseminar or webinar, or at a destination writing retreat vacation, your time has come to write! It's time to tell your story. OUR story! Don't let our history get lost! Our lives and our words are important to share. Our young LGBT friends and family need to know on whose shoulders they stand, and the straight world needs to know that they didn't make history without us. |

If a nation loses its storytellers, it loses its childhood. Peter Handke |

On-line writing seminars and writing retreats help provide the tools you need to initiate or augment your writing. Our seminars and retreats are taught by published, working writers who are also experienced teachers. We explore new directions, provide a community of like-minded folks, and offer inspiration to help start your writing and to keep you going. You bring the desire and we'll help with the inspiration! On-Line Webinars 60-minute webinar provides important and helpful information about writing, gives assignments for you to actually begin your writing process, guides you through the development of your book, and connects you with other folks like yourself. Webinars offer the opportunity for you to create your story in the privacy of your own home but in the virtual company of others like yourself. The nurturing atmosphere allows your creativity to flow, no matter how intimidated you may feel. On-line writing workshops open up a world of opportunity for writers at every stage. Whether you are just getting started or have been writing for years, the flexibility of an online workshop provides the inspiration to keep writing and challenging yourself to achieve the next stage in your writing career. The cost is a very affordable $29. |

Don't try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It's the one and only thing you have to offer. Barbara Kingsolver |
