Backyard Pearls
Winter Writing Telecourse:
Launching our Writing Projects for the New Year!
Tuesdays, January 10 - February 7, 2012
Five weeks of class, by phone
12-1:00 Central Time
Are you ready to move past "stuck" and into "inspired"?
Have you heard the whisperings to write a book, blog or personal pieces, but keep getting distracted?
Is there a wisdom inside that longs to be expressed and contribute to others (and yourself) in a greater way, but doubts and fears keep you from taking the next step?
Or maybe some of these resonate with you:
- You are in the midst of a current writing project, but confusion and lack of clarity frustrate you and you start… stop… start… stop….
- You seemingly can’t find the time to write.
- When you do sit down to write, the “voices” come – I’m not good enough, who cares what I have to say…
- When you write, you feel like you’re skirting the surface rather than connecting with your true voice and deeper message.
- You simply don’t start writing at all. Instead, it’s the laundry, the kids, the errands…
It’s Your Time!
No more putting your needs on the back burner as you dedicate time to others or events that are less important to you. The Backyard Pearls Winter Writing Telecourse is a safe place to land.
Take this gift for yourself. Let the world slip away for a bit as you relax into the “ahhhh” of expressing what’s most deeply felt. Enter a creative oasis.
* Move from stuck to inspired!
* Create a “Writing Success Blueprint” you can use over and over
* Clarify writing goals so you know where to begin
* Connect your writing with your deeper purpose
* Unearth and banish deeper beliefs that keep us from writing
* Write in ways that energize, rather than deplete
* Discover your authentic voice – in writing and in life
* Learn innovative ways of using time to your advantage
* Create writing rituals that will power your practice
* Unlock writing through body-based methods
* Find ways of taming deceivingly innocent distractions

What are you waiting for? Is there really ever a “perfect” time to express what only you can express and share with the world?
Whether you are a new or experienced writer, this is your gentle, warm, affectionate, non-judgmental, wildly enthusiastic accountability class. Join us!
This is a place where there is no “wrong,” no matter where you are. Just your presence here will move you forward; or, for even bigger results, make a bodacious writing goal and watch it happen. You’ll know what’s right for you…
As an added benefit, while showing up gets you the most results, sometimes that’s not possible, so all classes will be recorded.
The telecourse includes guided visualizations, individual coaching with laser check-ins, short writing exercises, new topics each week, easy access via telephone, and intimate community in a private yahoo group for sharing wins, struggles and writing with your class community.

“It's really happening! And I owe so much of this to you! Do you realize I have been working on this project for years, and I re-wrote the entire book in 1 month after meeting with you? Thank you so much, Carolyn!” – Amy Ford, author of Brown Babies, Pink Parents |

“Carolyn is amazing. Her ability to help people find their voice, tap into what inspires them, get unblocked and find joy and pleasure in writing is a huge gift. She’s warm, nurturing, encouraging, creates a safe space to help you access your inner wisdom and really honors each and every participant. A small investment with a huge return. I can’t wait for the next retreat!” -- Renee Trudeau coach/speaker and author of “The Mother’s Guide to Self-Renewal: How to Reclaim, Rejuvenate and Re-Balance Your Life” www.ReneeTrudeau.com |

“My notion of working with a writing coach was that there would be someone with a whip and my goal would be to learn ways to jump out of the way every time that whip was cracked. There has been no whip, no jumping in and out of hoops; just encouragement and a thoughtful, kind approach to help me get into the best possible mental space to write. This has allowed me to not only write more productively and effortlessly, but with so much more joy than I’ve ever experienced while writing.” – Sue Legacy, psychotherapist, author of soon-to-be-published The Joy of Nada. |
Why is Carolyn teaching this Course?
I’m passionate about facilitating people to fully express themselves, in writing and in life. This isn’t just about writing – this is about letting go of old beliefs and habits that no longer support us and get in the way of what we want. I show up with not only years deepened on a spiritual path, but also professional training in life coaching and a full-time writing career including published books and more than 500 magazine and newspaper articles. My joy is to inspire you to take whatever is the next step for you – and then be amazed by what happens…
