Each person of Faith encounters many steps along the pilgrim road toward God. We often wish to share these stories with others. How do we find the right words? How do we put our hard-earned wisdom on the page so that it resonates with others?Our time together will teach you how to craft stories to be shared in a variety of circumstances: as spiritual reflection, as a devotional aid, as a gift to children or grandchildren, for publication, or for the sheer personal pleasure in finding the right words and putting them in the right order to
convey what we really want to say.
We’ll look at resonant details to adjust the tone and mood of our story, how to control pacing, how to keep a reader’s interest, when to use humor, and how to incorporate Scriptural references most effectively, and other questions.
A combination of class time in writing workshops, a sprinkling of curated readings at night, and a deep commitment to each individual’s writing journey will fuel our time together. I encourage you to plan for half-days in class, (optional) individual appointments with me during non-class
time, and the remaining free time to write, read, and pray.
The opportunity to meet with me in individual appointments for writing consultation is part of supporting your learning during our time together. Potential topics could be particular writing skills, the publishing industry, an idea for a potential writing project, or understanding your
writing vocation, etc.
