- overcome "writer's block" and "stage fright" with easy-to-apply techniques
- understand the importance of telling your own story
- as well as write and share some wonderful personal work.  

Geared towards anyone starting their journey of writing, as well as experienced poets, speakers and performers seeking a refresher on essential skills.
