“Journal writing is a voyage to the interior.” (Christina Baldwin)

A journal is a secret place to share your thoughts, process experiences, interpret dreams, capture memories, make to-do lists, and record the books you’ve read, the wines you’ve tasted, the places you’ve been. Journaling can be therapeutic, inspiring, creative–it can be anything you want it to be. It’s a means though which to discover yourself.

We’ll explore a variety of journaling styles (junk journaling, travel log, gratitude journaling, and more) and learn how the practice can make us better writers. We’ll study the journals of creatives like Leonardo da Vinci, Frida Kahlo, and Lynda Barry, then do guided exercises to get our creative juices flowing.

Led and hosted by: Lara Ehrlich, author of Animal Wife (Red Hen Press, 2020) and director of Thought Fox Writers Den, and Dana Campbell, founder of Shuttle Press and Bindery

PRICE: $100
Price includes the workshop and a custom handcrafted journal made by Dana at Shuttle Press and Bindery ; choose your design at checkout.
