Nurturing Brave Writers Workshops

The Nurturing Brave Writers Workshop is an in-service training for parents who homeschool their kids. But why limit it to homeschool? This workshop will empower any parent to be the best writing coach and ally they can be during the crucial developmental years of 8-18. We'll spend a Friday evening and all day Saturday together not just listening to Julie talk, but working together through various exercises, learning how to make use of the tools that enhance your children's writing abilities and most importantly, tackling that beast called writer's block that thwarts even the most passionate writers from time to time.
