 For the new writer, or anyone who needs a refresher in the basics, our Beginning Writers Development Workshops provide a solid foundation in the fundamentals of grammar, punctuation, composition and descriptive writing. Material is presented in a straightforward, practical manner using several examples and opportunities for self-evaluation. In addition to exercises, students also receive specific writing assignments for the instructor's evaluation and participation in group feedback and discussion sessions.
In the workshops you:
- Learn the fundamentals of creative/memoir writing

- Learn how to rewrite and edit your story for publication
- Write your authors bio
- Submit stories for upcoming editions of Chicken Soup for the Soul ©
- Learn how to deal with fear and doubt using daily affirmations

 We believe our workshops are a popular and an important component for new and veteran writers. Writers are challenged to explore their craft as they develop solid writing skills in a supportive atmosphere. You learn the fundamentals of writing, structure, dialogue and flow. We challenge your imagination through writing exercises and assignments. Writers receive personal attention in small, intimate settings, which creates an atmosphere of camaraderie and develops a community of peers.
As a workshop participant, Reflections Publishing will take your stories, edit them, and publish them in a class book. Workshop participants will name the book and design the cover. We will arrange a book signing at your organization so you can purchase copies to sell to your friends and family. The class book is an excellent opportunity to create a byline for you as an author, and will make a lasting memento you can pass on to family and friends..
