Online Course:

The Stories of Your Soul
Personalized Heart Centered Writing Seminars with Debora Seidman

Contact Debora about availability

How it works:

This course combines an online curriculum with private phone sessions with Debora.

What you get:

The online curriculum is designed to help you deepen your experience with Writing the Prayer of Your Life. You’ll be guided to develop your own sacred writing practice in a way that works for you.

Each week you’ll get course materials (about five pages) that include both writing exercises and a Writing the Prayer of Your Life teaching from me. Sometimes the teaching is more focused on matters of writing and craft, sometimes it’s more focused on healing, personal growth, and spiritual evolution.

Five times during the ten weeks you’ll have a 45 minute phone session with Debora. That’s where we’ll co-create the plan that serves you best right now. You’ll be guided to set Specific Manageable, Achievable, Realistic, Time sensitive (SMART) goals.

As the course progresses, you’ll be supported to implement those goals, as well as to discuss any challenges that have arisen.

Depending on where you are in your writing life, these goals might be anything from : “I will write every day for 15 minutes”; to, “I will write 20 pages a month on my memoir.”

I will read and respond to up to five pages of your writing every week.* You choose whether to send me your responses to the exercises I send you, or the writing you do related to your own goals, or a combination.

You will also have access to me via email for support during the week if needed.

Note: The writing exercises in the course material are substantial, and might be all you want to do, especially at the beginning, or if you are a new (or newly returning) writer.

Registration and Cost

Other options for in depth support of your writing

*If you are writing a project that would benefit from my response to more than five pages a week, this can be arranged at a different fee structure. Please contact me if you’re interested in this option.

To apply:

If you’re interested, please send me an email explaining a little about yourself, your writing background, and your interest in this class. If you have an idea of what your goals might be (even if they are very general or vague right now) please include them. If not, just say so, and that will be part of what we work on.

Note on what kinds of writing we can work on together:
I am a multi-genre writer. I’ve had plays professionally produced, and have also published and won awards for my poetry and fiction. I’ve published non-fiction as well.
If I feel you’re working on a project that I can’t help you with, I will honestly tell you.

Questions about any of this? Send me an email!

Thanks so much for your interest in this work.

Blessings,

Debora
