Comments
from Workshop Attendees
"It was a
fabulous weekend and Judy O'Malley was great. I found her
to be open and forthright. And with such a small group it
was easy to get to know everyone and their writing. Joyce
has some great ideas for other workshops."
Denise Ortakales
"Thanks for the
wonderful weekend. I know you needed a couple of more
writers to make it really work for you, but it was a great
"launch" for Wordshop. I feel fortunate to have been part of that first group.
(When will we ever get that much attention again?? Oh, my
god!) The studio is well located in your beautiful town,
and you're already well into making it perfect for a
retreat." Judy Merrow

We
can only talk about ourselves in the language we
have available. If
that language is rich, it illuminates us.
But if it is narrow or restricted, it
represses and conceals us. – Joan Whitehead |
