ABOUT

One reason we write is because we love words. This workshop will focus on the words and phrases we choose to use. We will do writing activities that help us climb out of our word ruts, stretch our word repertoires, run from cliches, and change common words to power words. We will make our writing have punch. A good class for beginning writers but also for those who have been writing a long time and want to be refreshed and inspired. Prose and poetry writers of all levels are welcome to explore the possibilities of words. Lots of individual attention, group sharing, and fun.

INSTRUCTOR

Nicole Gnezda (Niki) is a writer, artist, speaker, and educator with a Ph.D. in creativity studies. Included in her body of publications is the book, Teaching Difficult Students: Blue Jays in the Classroom (Rowman and Littlefield), professional articles, and poetry published in Ohio Bards Poetry Anthology, Common Threads, Crone Magazine, and Uppercase. Niki makes bobbin lace with her ancestor’s bobbins, paints, cooks, and travels. She believes creativity takes life apart and reassembles it in magnificent ways. It gets us through and sometimes heals us.
