Description
Bruce Kauffman’s ‘intuitive writing’ workshop, developed in 2012, is based on his reflections upon and observations about his own writing, “… concepts developed in the early 90’s as I watched in my own creative process then, the substance and style of how and what I was writing began to change.” This workshop is designed with less a 'how to write well' and more a 'why and from where should I write' mindset. It was even billed once, by a Queen's campus student writing group, as a guide to overcome writer's block.
