WritingOnTheWildSideTomPeek-v3

Join Tom Peek at Volcano Art Center for Writing on the Wild Side, on Saturday, January 23, from 9:30am– 3:30pm at VAC’s Niaulani Campus in Volcano Village. Class fee is $75/$65 for VAC members.

Hone your writing skills, explore your creative mind and discover your unique voice in a new writing workshop with popular Big Island writing teacher and award-winning novelist Tom Peek. Social media correspondents, bloggers, storytellers, journal writers and poets will find Tom’s stimulating techniques and exercises empowering.

Being yourself on paper might be one of the hardest things to do for a writer. In his newest workshop, “Writing On The Wild Side,“ Peek offers a wealth of knowledge that writers can use in everyday social media sharing, including journaling and blogging. “Writing on the Wild Side” will help writers create prose that people actually want to read.

Putting your thoughts into words has never been more prevalent than in today’s electronic communications. Facebook, Twitter, not to mention blogs and websites are all waiting for you to release your expressive potential. Previous students have found Peek’s workshops to be engaging, informative, and practical.

Learn to silence your inner critic and unleash your expressive potential in this fun, fast-paced, and provocative writing workshop. Open to all levels and genres. No writing experience is necessary.

Peek has taught his popular workshops since 1991. A writer for over three decades, his work includes an award-winning novel, newspaper stories and commentaries, university publications, magazine articles, national park exhibits and award-winning video productions.
