Fall Arts Workshop Series- Art of Storytelling
THE FINE ART OF STORYTELLING with Marilyn Noble
As a writer, have you ever wished you could get away from everything for a few days and immerse yourself in your writing? Wouldn’t it be great if you had an instructor who could carry you to new heights of creativity while teaching you the practical aspects of your craft?
As long as we’re building a vision, what if you could be surrounded by other writers who share your dream, who are dedicated to learning and collaborating in a supportive way? And who believe in having fun too?
Finally, what if you could do all that in a place of great beauty that will inspire and mesmerize you at the same time?
Our retreats have been designed for writers by writers, people who understand the value of diving into your own deep wellspring of creativity, surrounded by a community of like-minded colleagues, in some of the most awe-inspiring landscapes on the planet.
In this intimate and interactive workshop, you'll learn about the elements that make a compelling story, how to use your five senses to liven your prose, how to uncover your personal truth and incorporate it into your writing.
