SUMMARY:From Path to Page: Write Your Camino Story (Workshop) with Joy Thierry Llewellyn
DESCRIPTION:A Path to Page: Write Your Camino Story is a two-hour workshop for hikers ready to turn their Camino adventures into more than memories and journal entries. We’ll explore story structure\, writing techniques\, and ways to shape your experiences into an article\, a short story\, or book. Expect small group discussions\, laughter\, and handouts\, plus ideas for getting your story onto the page and finally out of your backpack. \nJoy Thierry Llewellyn is an avid long-distance hiker who loves living out of a backpack. She was a story editor and screenwriter for film and TV\, and taught screenwriting in Canada\, India\, and China. She’s been a journalist\, wildlife biology technician\, governess in Australia\, spent time in a TIbetan Buddhist monastery in Nepal researching the resident Rinpoche\, stayed in a remote Indian hospital while travelling the world in the footsteps of Dr. Lotta Hitschmanova\, and worked in France on a goat farm in the Pyrenees. Her memoir short story about growing up in isolated fishing camps in Northern Quebec was short listed for the Commonwealth Prize. She now lives on a small BC island where she writes Young Adult novels about adventurous female rebels\, and is finishing a travel memoir\, Lovers of Leaving.
