Join me for a hands-on workshop that provides tools to quiet that snarky voice in your head that asks questions like:

— Am I good enough to perform?

— Is this a pipedream?

— What’s with Taylor Swift?

— Why am I so lazy?

— Am I a no-talent fake?

This session will be tailored for musicians and your extra burden of being on stage, submitting yourself to the ruthless judgment of an audience, and to the whispers of your family (and some friends) who wish you would lead a more normal life like they do.

Hands-on, experiential, come prepared to meet your own personal gremlin and start rassling it down.

In conversation with Marni Freedman at the Coronado Performing Arts Center

Sponsored by Warwick’s Books, Friends of the Coronado Library, and the San Diego Writer’s Festival

Audience Q&A and book signing

Tickets $10-$38.95

Free admission

Join me for a hands-on workshop exploring ways to tame your inner critic. Sponsored by A Writing Room Collective, the 90-minute session gives you the opportunity to meet your gremlin full-on, interrogate it to its purposes, and challenge its authority over your life.

— Am I good enough?

— Who am I fooling?

— Isn’t memoir and fiction writing childish?

— No one believes in me, and why should they?

— I’m the laziest writer who ever lived

The messages are the same for all of us. Let’s do some work to move them to the side so we can get some writing done.
