Re-story-ation: Writing Your Origin Story
A Workshop with Amanda Reavey
Saturday, November 4, 2017, 1-4 pm
Mt. Pinatubo, Tarlac, Philippines

Fee: $32/$26 members (all materials included)
Registration: Registration is closed. Sign up for our e-list for information on upcoming workshops.

Come explore and share our origin stories. 

Who are you? Why are you here? What do you want? We, as humans, are more than our birth certificates and where we work. We, as writers, are more than our rationalizations. As both humans and writers, we are all at once artists, dreamers, mythmakers, and visionaries.  In this workshop, we will explore the cultural history and importance of origin stories, as well as ideas for approaching and discovering your own.
