Deep down inside we are all writers. Writers of our own stories and our own dreams. Some of us might even journal or write e-mails, social media posts, to-do lists and reviews. But writing can be so much more if we start connecting it with what’s alive inside of us. Imagine we would leave all the rules, restrictions and limitations on how to write behind. Instead we would approach it with childish curiosity and celebrate whatever wants to be shared. You would be surprised!

In this creative writing workshop we are going to discover the Shakespeare inside of us. Through different exercises and tools we will explore new ways of writing. We will let the mind rest for a bit and discover how it feels to write from the heart. The intention is not to write a perfect text, but to find stories that are hidden within us and trying to find their way out.

This workshop is for you if:

• you want to experience how liberating and fun writing can be
• you love writing and are looking for inspiration and new ideas
• you always wanted to write, but didn’t know how or where to start
• your inner critic made you believe you can’t write (which is untrue!)

At the end of the workshop you will leave with new ideas and a better understanding of how writing can add value to your daily life.

About the workshopgiver
I am Eline, a passionate writer and storyteller. Wherever I go, I always carry pen and paper with me, searching for that one special story that wants to be told. I truly believe we all carry stories within us. Hidden gems, waiting to be found. I love supporting people finding their unique voice. I also love singing, palm trees and traveling. I spend half of the year in Mexico where I facilitate singing circles, writing workshops and reiki & coaching sessions.

Review
“I joined the workshop out of curiosity. I had so much fun and I am very happy I joined. I grew up having this idea I am not a good writer, so I never really liked it. Eline showed us different ways of writing and it was interesting to discover which ones worked and which ones didn’t. I started actually liking what I was writing and how it felt! I felt comfortable during the workshop and Eline really gave me the feeling there was a writer hidden inside of me. Because of her trust I picked up the writing and till today I am still enjoying it. Thank you so much, Eline!" (Ricky, 37)
