Want to write but don't know where to begin?
Already writing but feeling blocked?
Have fun using writing prompts and timed free-writing to unlock your ideas and let your writing flow. You’ll have permission to write without concerns about spelling, grammar or whether your writing is "good enough." Prompts such as objects, images, words and phrases will give your imagination a clear starting point.
No prior creative writing experience necessary.
Ready to get your creative juices flowing?
Whether you're a beginning writer looking for support or an experienced writer hoping to spice up your writing practice, this workshop is for you!
Past participants are welcome to join: this workshop uses different prompts each time it's offered.

Feedback from past participants:
"I had some fears going into this workshop: of things being awkward, of not being able to write anything in the live session, of not feeling comfortable in the group to express myself and share my thoughts. I am happy to say none of those fears were founded and the workshop was the exact opposite of all that.”
"I had a great time at the workshop, and a great time writing fiction for the very first time! I especially liked the relaxed atmosphere and the inclusion of everybody, while also allowing us to step back and only listen.”
"As someone who has attended all six of Lisa’s “Unlock Your Writing” workshops, I can say that Lisa provides a supportive, nonjudgmental atmosphere for burgeoning writers as well as those who are interested in trying their hand at writing. She has introduced me to a wide variety of tools, such as using different prompts, free writing, timed writing, and regular writing practice, with the understanding that we each have to figure out what suits us best. Writing can feel lonely at times, but in Lisa's workshops I have found a lively community."
