SUMMARY:Write from the Heart
DESCRIPTION:Trust Your Inner Voice and Let Your Writing Flow \nEvery writer knows the thrill of inspiration — and the frustration when doubt creeps in. You have a story to tell\, but the noise of “How should I write it?” and “What will people think?” can drown out the very voice you need most: your own. \nWrite from the Heart is a workshop for writers and aspiring authors who want to build trust in their intuition — not just for crafting words\, but for making the big choices that come after: editing\, publishing\, and sharing your work with the world. \nWhen you learn to tune into your own creative compass\, writing becomes easier\, decisions become clearer\, and you start moving forward with confidence instead of second-guessing every step. \n  \nIn this workshop\, you will:\n\nFind your flow again — learn to bypass overthinking so the words come naturally\nBreak through writer’s block by tuning into your inner storyteller\nMake publishing decisions with clarity — so you stop spinning in “What ifs” and start taking action\nAlign your marketing with your message — no more feeling awkward about promoting your work\nTrust your creative instincts — and feel proud of the choices you make from first draft to finished book\n\n  \nWhat we’ll do together:\n\nIntuitive Free-Writing Sessions to loosen up your voice and strengthen your connection to it\nCharacter & Scene Channeling to add depth\, emotion\, and truth to your stories\nDecision Mapping Exercises for publishing\, editing\, or marketing choices\nEnergy Check-Ins to sense if a creative or business decision truly feels “right” for you\n\n  \nBy the end\, you’ll leave with: \n\nPages of fresh\, inspired writing\nA deeper connection to your own creative process\nTools you can use anytime you get stuck or uncertain\nThe confidence to move forward in your writing journey — on your terms\n\n  \nWhether you’re working on your first piece or your fifth book\, this is your space to reconnect with your voice\, your vision\, and the joy of writing from the heart.

SUMMARY:Myths Remixed: How to Write Bold Retellings of Classic Tales
DESCRIPTION:Myths Remixed: How to Write Bold Retellings of Classic Tales\n3-Hour Writing Workshop Proposal \nFor as long as humans have gathered around campfires\, we’ve told myths. Greek epics\, Arthurian legends\, fairy tales\, and even modern icons like James Bond and Marvel superheroes – all of them are stories we keep returning to because they help us understand ourselves and our world. \nBut retelling a myth isn’t simply copying the original story. The best retellings bring something new to the conversation. In this workshop\, author Betsy Ellor (Hera: Kingdom of Lies) guides writers through the art of transforming classic myths\, legends\, and folklore into compelling modern stories. Participants will learn how retellings work\, what readers expect\, and how to find the fresh angle that makes an old story feel new again. \nThis interactive workshop combines discussion\, craft lessons\, and guided writing exercises designed to help participants begin\, or strengthen\, their own myth retelling projects. \nWhat We’ll Do Together\n– Explore famous myth retellings from literature\, film\, and pop culture and why they continue to resonate with modern audiences\n– Break down what makes successful retellings work\n– Examine how myths evolve as cultures reinterpret them.\n– Identify your personal connection to a myth and why it matters to your storytelling.\n– Look at the development of Hera: Kingdom of Lies as a real-world example of building a retelling from research and personal perspective.\n– Participate in guided writing exercises to find new angles on old myths \nBy the End You’ll Leave With:\n– A clear understanding of how myth retellings work.\n– Strategies for choosing the right myth to retell.\n– Tools for finding the fresh angle that makes your version unique.\n– Pages of new writing generated during the workshop.\n– Inspiration to carry your project forward\n– Resources to help you on your journey \nFor thousands of years\, storytellers have been adding their voices to these stories. Now it’s your turn.
