Description

Writing from our nuanced, joy-filled experiences of San Miguel is a unique, heart- infused, skill-building, and FUN practice!

We will meet at La Casona for our opening class in WritingWild — an invaluable and unique process of coming to the page with ease and eagerness, and writing from Passionate Center. You will fall in love with this process: adaptable to any genre or project — literally everyone produces — instantly — juicy, dynamic, and memorable writing.

Then we take WritingWild out on the town! And share hours of enlivening practices in lyrical journaling, poetry, travel and food writing, memoir, dialogue, and description.

Utilizing exciting, insider-curated, San Miguel locales as source and resource, we will apply our new skills to weave our own stories with our experiences as we drink in the sights, sounds, flavors and unique culture San Miguel’s gorgeous, fascinating environs!

This one-of-a-kind workshop requires the ability to comfortably walk our cobblestone streets and climb stairs.

Not included: transportation, entrance fees, food, drinks.
