MARK TRAVIS RETURNS FOR THE 12TH YEAR!
Due to the increasing demand for the Mark Travis Solo Workshop all who have benefited from the unique methods of this remarkable man will be delighted to hear that MARK TRAVIS is returning to Hawaii for two back-to-back three day SOLO WORKSHOPS on autobiographical writing!
So many people have wanted an opportunity for extended work with Mark that we are planning to offer these two three day workshops— which will allow us to have smaller groups in each weekend. Mark will also be available for private sessions between the two workshops. It is possible to register for either 3 day workshop or for both.
And to those who haven't had the opportunity to experience Mark's extraordinary gifts ~
NOW IS YOUR CHANCE!

THE SOLO WORKSHOP -
The Solo Workshop is more than a writing workshop— it is a storytelling journey. Students learn a wide variety of skills that will enhance, clarify and shape their autobiographical writing. Ultimately, and most importantly, students will take the audience on a very personal journey and allow them to share your life experiences in a profound and meaningful manner. This Solo Workshop will give all students the tools and insight necessary to continue the journey of development on their own.
