Resources

  • Where Your Pen Lands

    I teach writing to clarify, deepen, and expand thinking. The demands and goals of this kind of writing are very different from those connected to writing for publication.

  • Writing the Mind Alive: Proprioceptive Writing to Access Your Inner Self

    For years, we kept a Gary Larson cartoon taped to the wall of our office at the Proprioceptive Writing Center in Maine. It showed half a dozen aardvarks seated comfortably in the animal self-help section of the library.
