2012 is an amazing time to be starting on your writing
adventure and Chateau Ventenac is the perfect place to
discover your creativity and turn your ideas into a blog
that people want to read and you have fun writing.
- How many times has someone said to you that you
should write a blog?
- How many times have you thought mmm that’s a great idea
but…
- I don’t know where to start
- I’ve tried and it just
doesn’t flow
- Who would be interested in what I have to
say?
- I am useless with technology
- And on and on
At
Châteaux Ventenac we believe everyone can write and that
journaling is the foundation to all writing. It is the place
where all ideas and thoughts can be captured and reflected
on. In this series of workshops we explore how to starting
to journal, creating stories, transforming them into blogs
and growing your following.
If you can journal, you can tell
stories, if you can tell stories, you can blog and if you
can blog, you can write a book. Really! Yes you can.
Writing
is also a wonderful way to get your stuff out; it is
cathartic, helps to release stress and ignites your
creativity. You will be amazed at the stories that you find
inside yourself.
Over these few days we will kick start your
writing adventure. Get your pens at the ready…
The aim of
these workshops is to take you on a journey where the
foundation to your writing is your journal, through the
planning and outline process, into the creativity phase and
out onto the world wide web.
Each afternoon you will be
encouraged to journal and to try out the ideas from that
days workshop. Every morning we will reflect on the day
before and share any aha moments.
