If one of your New Year's Resolutions is to  learn how to tap into your own expe­ri­ences to write, then you might want to join us on Saturday, January 16 at the Bel Arco Resort in Bull Shoals, Arkansas for a writer's workshop.(Bull Shoals is about 1.5 hours south of Branson, Mo.)

My work­shop, Write What you Know, which I orig­i­nally devel­oped for Johnson County Community College in the Kansas City area, will include point­ers and lots of exer­cises to help you tap into your own pas­sions and life expe­ri­ences to write for busi­ness or just for yourself.

We'll be writ­ing from 9a.m. — 1 p.m.

The cost is only $10, but you have to be reg­is­tered by January 8.

Send your check or money order to:

Mary Nida Smith

c/o Bel Arco Workshops

162 Stamford Dr
Lakeview, AR 72642

I hope to see you there!

    Hi, Karen, I don't know where you live but most com­mu­nity col­leges have class such as this. Also, start devour­ing books on writ­ing — "Writing Down the Bones," and "Wild Mind" are two clas­sics. They don't give the "how to," but they help you feel more secure in iden­ti­fy­ing with that writ­ing voice from within.
    I also some­times teach this class online. I don't have any planned right now, but if you email me with your address, I'll put you on a list.
    Thanks!
