About the Event
My name is Martha Lang and I am an editor, published author, and writing coach with 30 years of experience. As a college professor and publishing industry professional, I have worked with over 1,000 individuals of every ability and from all walks of life to become better writers and find their voice. I believe that each individual has a unique story to share and telling the truths found within it can both heal and transform. This workshop is designed to give you to the tools to do just that.
In this 3 part series (Sept 7, 14, & 21st) you will discover how the practice of writing about your life experience shapes your understanding of who you are and who you can become. Through writing one part of your life experience, sharing it with others in a safe environment, and learning to transform it into a myth or legend, you will discover how your story can serve as a tool for self-expression, self-discovery, and transformation of yourself and your community.
Topics addressed will include:
• A writing skills refresher and practical tips for becoming a better writer;
• Learning new ways to journal about life experience as a tool for self-discovery and healing;
• How myths and legends have been used by societies to transform understanding of difficult experiences;
• How to identify the elements of myth and legend in one of your own life experiences; and
• How to retell the story of that life experience as a legend to transform it.
