The Word of the Day Practice Creativity Workshop with Marilyn Horowitz
16 Jul 2024 @ 01:00pm
Join us for this exclusive workshop for NYWIFT Members.
The Word of the Day Practice is a 15-minute journaling process that quickly shuts down the inner critic that plagues us writers. Using words and images, the practice eliminates the bad habits of guilt and self-criticism. Instead, we can focus on unconditional creativity and greater productivity.
In this 90 minute interactive seminar, Marilyn Horowitz will share how to apply the Word of the Day tools to your current project and create an efficient journaling practice to supercharge your writing.
Bring a pen and paper, and roll up your sleeves!
