Some scenes are harder to write than others. Maybe they’re deeply personal. Maybe they stir up complicated emotions. Or maybe they just feel impossible to get right. In this supportive, hands-on workshop, writers will learn how to move through emotional resistance and finally write the scenes they’ve been avoiding. Blending mindfulness with craft, we’ll create a calm and focused space for exploration. Writers will leave with a 500-word discovery draft, practical editing tools for emotionally intense prose, and grounded strategies for moving forward. San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram
