Hello writers and friends,
Itching to write? Karen Paul Holmes is teaching an all-genre writing class at the Folk School the weekend of July 6. limit 8 students. There are still a few seats. If you live in the mountain counties, you can get a 1/2 price spot. That's only $160 for a fun and inspiring weekend at John C. Campbell. Here's the link to register.
Here's the class description:
"Calling All Muses. Let’s stir the creative juices with help from other muses. Stream-of-consciousness writing to classical music will get us going. Exploring artists like Monet, the Beatles, or Baryshnikov will spur ideas for characters, plots, or poems. Expect to get a burst of inspiration to finish a writing project—or start a new one. You’ll also receive editing tips to make your pieces stronger and more readable. All levels welcome."
"Karen Paul Holmes, an award-winning writer, has work published in business magazines, literary journals, and anthologies. Her enthusiasm for teaching has given her top ratings for her writing workshops at international conferences. She also taught poetry to students through the Georgia Poetry Society's "Poets in the Schools" program. Karen is a writing coach, poet, freelance writer, and the editor of the North Carolina Writers' Network's Netwest News. She hosts a monthly "Writer's Night Out" in Hiawassee, GA."

Nancy, an all genre workshop more and more seems the only sensible way to approach writing; to seal oneself off in one genre or another, even if only for a few workshop days, is something I'd want to avoid. The more we can draw from other arts, other cultures, and times, the better writers we will be. And we will feel more excited about our work and about the world in general. I hope Karen has a huge success with this one!
