It's snowing steadily here in the Poconos and the skiers are happy. The sight of snow can be awfully inspiring (more about that later) but it does keep a lot of us stuck in our houses during the cold winter months. For those who don't ski, I've been organizing a different kind of activity to get you off your couch. On Sunday, February 8th, from 1 pm to 3 pm I'll be teaching a writing workshop at Sellers Books and Fine Art in Jim Thorpe. This workshop is intended for writers of all skill levels -- from writers who would like to learn more about the craft of fiction to those who are just getting started. The fee for the workshop is modest: just $10 bucks (about what you'd pay for a movie ticket and a Coke). If you'd like to learn to write (or just get better at it), please check out the workshop. You can get more information by calling (570)722-1680 or by writing a comment here and including your email address. The location of Sellers Books is 101 Broadway, Jim Thorpe, PA.
