Two and a half years ago, my father passed away suddenly. It hit me very hard. I gave a couple of support groups a try, but they didn't really work for me personally in the long run. I decided to give this thing a go and create a group that isn't a support group in the traditional sense. I hope to get a bunch of us together who have experienced a loss which has affected us deeply, which would be a source of mutual understanding, and would possibly (hopefully) enable some deep friendships to deve …

As a non-published, non-professional creative writer I decided to start offering writing workshops to foster love of writing in others. You don't have to know where to put a comma or what a conjunction is in order to use writing as a tool for personal expression. We all tend to get swamped with everyday responsibilities, stresses and work.  As critical as the two out of three of them are we also need time for ourselves.  Time to nurture our love of writing. Once a month we'll hold a themed wor …
