"Larissa Shmailo is a true warrior of the written/spoken word, as her life and work ignites her. What an honor to be one of her students! Her class is generative and I produced some pieces that were published quickly. We did in-class exercises and read our work aloud. Got excellent feedback from her, as well as the other students. If you get a chance to take Shmailo’s class, jump on it. She is a gift to the writing community. WOW!" –Meg Tuite, author of five short story collections, two poetry collections, and published in numerous literary magazines, as well as anthologies.

50% OFF WRITING RESILIENCE: A FEW SEATS LEFT!

Larissa's Blog -

 Dear friends and colleagues:

Exciting news! This month, until December 31, I am offering 50% off for the empowering workshop WRITING RESILIENCE, a special writing program for people affected by trauma, addiction, and/or mental illness (which, given Covid, is all of us lately!).  There are a few seats left in this life-changing workshop; participation is limited for intimate attention to your writing.

We will be doing a lot of writing! Writing brings to consciousness ideas that may not emerge through talking or thinking and can offer surprising insights valuable for mental health. Through a series of generative exercises, we will:

·      Empower ourselves by writing and owning our stories;

·      Experience greater resilience and coping;

·      Enjoy rich emotional experiences;

·      Explore arenas of communication and community.

The next workshop takes place Sundays in January 10, 17, 24, 31, 4:00 – 6:00 pm. Until December 31, the total price for all four weeks is now 50% off at $99.00

Dear friends and colleagues:

I have a new workshop I want to share with you: Writing Resilience, a special writing program for people affected by trauma, addiction, and/or mental illness.

As an internationally known poet, novelist, translator, editor, and writing coach, and a recovering peer myself, I am offering one-on-one sessions and workshops (forming now). I will guide you to writing for greater resilience and coping, rich emotional experience, and arenas of communication and community.

Upcoming Workshop: January 10, 17, 24, 31, 4:00 – 6:00 pm. $200.
