Write From The Heart: Inspirational Essay Writing Workshop

Instructor: Stefanie Wass

Stefanie Wass lives in Hudson, Ohio with her husband and two girls. As a freelancer, her essays have been published in The Los Angeles Times, Seattle Times, Christian Science Monitor, Akron Beacon Journal, Akron Life and Leisure, Cleveland Magazine, two Cup of Comfort and six Chicken Soup for the Soul anthologies.

Are you a “glass half full” person?  Do you marvel at ordinary miracles - a child’s smile, the change of seasons, time spent with family?  Learn how to tell your inspirational story and share it with others.  In this workshop, you will learn the elements of inspirational essay writing and how to craft your story for publication.  Drafting, revision, and editing will be discussed, as well as paying essay markets.  Bring paper and pen!
