DESCRIPTION:Online Group Classes Developing Personal Voice\nwith Lara Cole
 y\, author of ex traction poetry collection\nSix 1.5 hour classes starting
  June 16th (plus a call with me after to look at your writing together)\nT
 uesdays at 8pm (CET/Paris time) or 11am (PST/California time)\n \nWhat yo
 u'll learn:\nHow do you express who you are in words? How do you use your 
 voice to get people to understand you\, the real you\, better? Everyone pa
 cks their words with their own meaning and we want to look at what *you* a
 re packing\, if you are carrying enough\, too much\, or not enough to get 
 you where you’re going. We will look at curated pieces that have inspire
 d me to reflect\, to feel\, to write\, and we examine how they did it\, wh
 at can we borrow as a tool... Then we'll ask\, what do we want to say usin
 g that tool?\n \nHow it's organized:\n\n\nWarm up your voice: quick & eas
 y writing prompt on the theme\n\n\nDive into inspiration with short\, cura
 ted contemporary work we read together\n\n\nDiscuss what we get from it & 
 take a look at the tricks & tools doing the work (making us  feeeeel some
 thing) in the piece\n\n\nExploratory prompts to jump into your own voice\,
  using those tools\n\n\nTime to share (no pressure but it is a joy to be w
 ith other people who just took the very vulnerable step of putting their v
 oice on paper & sharing what you each got from the exercise)\n\n\nConnect 
 the ideas to the world (where else we might see these tools being helpful\
 , or the image the sharing brought up\, or whatever we have time for that 
 connects what we just took in or created)\n\n\n \nHi! Lara Coley here. \
 nWith 15 years teaching creative writing and as a former editor-in-chief\,
  I know how to help writers get to the meat of what they want their reader
 s to feel. I have experience working with professional writers and brand n
 ew\, first time writers. If you have never written\, you will learn tools 
 to start writing. If you have been writing for years\, you will dig into w
 here the 'you' in your writing voice has been hiding.\n€325 early bird p
