1 Session This exploratory workshop is designed to help writers determine their personal thematic by distinguishing which topics resonate most. We’ll engage with imaginative prompts, including an exercise in which participants will analyze their film favorites. The workshop will include a taste of SoulCollage®, an expressive arts method that, combined with journaling, helps participants access inner callings. Writers will be able to articulate which themes contain the most personal energy for them, providing guidance for projects.
