SJWG Monthly General Meeting Presentation – August 15th, 2019
Here is a SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY to learn from Author, Speaker, TEDx Presenter, University Lecturer, and Positive Psychology Coach, DR. COLLEEN GEORGES
When: Thursday, August 15, 2019 – 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM
Where: Barrington VFW Hall, 109 Shreve Avenue, Barrington, NJ, 08007
Discussion Description:
Dr. Colleen had a book in her head for over 16 years. Sometimes parts of it got out of her head and onto paper. However, most of the time, her internal narrator (AKA, her Inner Antagonist) was telling her a story filled with rules and reasons that made completing her book feel impossible! Most writers live a similar struggle. Dr. Colleen will share her book journey—the rules, the reasons, and the RESCRIPTing! As writers, when we RESCRIPT our internal narrator, we can create a writing process that offers us a balanced mix of structure, flow, and self-compassion. Dr. Colleen will share her RESCRIPTed writing process tips and answer book publishing, launch, and marketing questions.
