I'm very excited for Chapters' 2013 annual event for local authors. This year we're trying something different, and so far the response has been incredibly positive. If you're interested in writing or simply bringing more creativity into your everyday life, join us for a workshop on October 19 at the Red Path Gallery in Seward.
"Write from the Heart: A Writing and Creativity Workshop with Becky Breed and Lucy Adkins" will take participants through a series of writing exercises designed to help individuals realize their greater writing potential and maximize their creative energies. By creating out of our hearts--writing from our inner selves, our experiences, and what we dream--participants will become empowered to tap into their creative abilities and find more inspiration in their lives. Pre-registration and a $25 registration fee are required. Bring your writing notebook or journal. Click here to register now.
The presenters, Lucy Adkins and Becky Breed, are both from Lincoln and are actively involved in the local writing community as teachers, writers, and presenters. Their new book, Writing in Community is available at Chapters.
Gina Barlean, president of the Nebraska Writers Guild, says it is, "Poignant. Deep thoughts. Beautiful ideas. An epiphany at every turn of the page. Beautifully written by well-read women. As a writer, I tend to read judgmentally. I found I never had a moment of judgment with this book. I read it like a reward for good behavior. This book is yoga for the creative mind."
If you haven't visited the Red Path Gallery yet, you're in for a treat. The gallery is host to area artists and their studios, and while you're taking a break during the workshop, don't miss the opportunity to browse. There are some very talented artists in our community, and the gallery does a beautiful job of showcasing their work. I'm doing some Christmas shopping down there this year! Check them out on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/redpathgallery.
Following the workshop, all participants, as well as other area writers and friends are invited to Chapters for a reception. No registration is required for the reception, which will simply be a time to network, visit, and share your inspiration.
