A writer's workshop was held the first weekend of July 2008, ably facilitated by Dorothy Tovell of the University of Alberta.

Themes the group covered included:

  • Branching points in one’s life
  • Family
  • Work
  • Spirituality
  • Money
  • Goals and aspirations

“If you can talk, you can write. Writing is a tool for exploring our life. Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards. Knowing about where I have been helps me know more about where I want to go. Guided auto-biography is a self-enlightening experience. It took me down paths of self-discovery I had not expected to wander.”

The group's enthusiasm was shown by their expressed desire to meet again to ensure the writing goes on.

We are looking at the possibility of offering the Writer's Retreat again in 2010. Scholarships again will be available. We are open to bartering. Call if this tweaks your interest.
