Author
and teacher Joanne Nelson will lead the workshop session - Crafting Story: The
Art of Close Attention. This interactive session focuses on exercises and
discussion designed to re-energize rich moments of memory, create vivid sensory
details, and structure narrative flow in compelling ways. We will practice
paying close attention and learn how increased awareness of the present can
help us craft our stories that must be told. Bring plenty of paper or a laptop,
and a desire to spend time learning, laughing, and, of course, writing! wakeupthewriterwithin.com
