Lecture: Writing as Ritual

A 90-minute presentation for all working writers, whether aspiring or experienced. Maxine Rose Schur shares her philosophy of the writing life using as a framework, 7 spiritual rituals by which a writer can gain insight, inspiration, confidence, order and joy. Entertaining, yet down-to-earth practical, Writing as Ritual is packed with nuggets of great advice, writing tips and techniques for enhancing the writer's spiritual and emotional connection to his/her work. The rituals of sacrifice, communion, reflection, pilgrimage, candle lighting, recitation and hallowing serve as acts for a writer to strengthen commitment, increase efficiency and foster both personal and artistic growth. Writing as Ritual is as much about the writer's worth as it is about the writer's words. It is designed to encourage and empower writers to take charge of their writing aspirations.
