This sounds great and I wish I could go to it but I can’t so I’m going to post the release here instead:
Come share a weekend of awakening to the writer’s life, based on tenets from Lynn Grabhorn’s best-selling book, Excuse Me, Your Life Is Waiting.
Join writers Rebecca Lawton and Jordan Rosenfeld at Creating Space, a restorative retreat designed to help you attract the writing time, inspiration, and life that you aspire to lead.
Creating Space: The Law of Attraction for Writers, Wellspring Renewal Center, on the Navarro River, Mendocino County, California. April 29 through May 1, 2005.
At Creating Space we will share ways to set intentions, take inspired action, and change the energy of wanting through writing and focusing exercises. Discover how 16 seconds of directed intention a day can change your life!
Following principles made popular by the late Lynn Grabhorn, we will share presentations by writers and publishers, workshops to open creative channels, and exercises to shape the writing lives we desire. Grabhorn’s work was based on an age-old concept known as the Law of Attraction, an evocative concept that says feelings have a powerful quality to attract your deepest wishes. This weekend workshop invites you to explore the possibilities of your desires and your writing.
Wellspring’s beautiful, private setting above the Navarro River offers the solitude to write and refill the creative well in the center¹s many hideaways, by the river, and in the forest. The $390 cost includes food, lodging and workshop. To register send full payment by April 18th to:
Write Livelihood
635 E Street
Petaluma, CA 94952
