Story Circle is offering a Saturday writing-intensive workshop in the Austin area. Join us for this day-long workshop, which will give you plenty of opportunity to explore and share your personal story, discover some creative new approaches to lifewriting, and schmooze that elusive, reclusive Muse! Bring writing supplies (laptops welcome) and a brown-bag lunch. Drinks will be provided.

Enrollment is limited to ensure that everyone has a chance to participate, so be sure and register early! Enrollment/payment deadline is specified below, but is generally the Tuesday before the Schmooze workshop.

Cost per workshop: $65 for Story Circle Network members, $75 for non-members.

Saturday, July 30, 2005: Schmooze the Muse: "Moving Through Writing", led by Peggy Lamb: Come play with us as we explore the realtionship between the language of words and the language of the body. As we move the inexpressible we will come to know the symbolic language of movement and the cellular wisdom that swims through our bodies. Without judgement or criticism we will write our lives, our dances, our songs and our poetry. Using gentle stretches and movement exercises we will open our body's mind to let our words flow (50% writing time).

Peggy tells us this about herself: "I have taught this workshop Dallas with stunning results. In addtion to having a Masters Degree in Dance, I have taught movement classes to people from ages two to 92. I am a published poet and have written two books for massage therapists."
