Then this workshop is for you! We will cover as many tips and mistakes in book marketing as our time together allows. This workshop is a condensed version of an eight hour seminar given by Patricia that covers everything from publication of your work, to getting reviews, to branding yourself, to blogging for sales, to getting your book into bookshops.

Make 2011 Shine! Women's Visioning Circle
Our 18th Annual ...
WOMEN'S VISIONING CIRCLE
Women of Power Empowering You
Two special days of Visioning and Manifesting
January 8 and 9, 2011
with Evalena Rose
Drumming Circle led by Barbara Borden, Keeper of the Beat
Join us for enchanting rituals designed to manifest new realities in
your life, using the magic inherent in a circle of powerful women to
call them into being.
VISIONING RITUAL: Saturday, January 8, 10:00AM ~ 9:30PM
Dive deep to discover what blocks treasured goals from coming true, then
drum and chant as each woman releases her blocks to the fire. Enjoy
Barbara Borden's mastery in guiding the drumming to serve each dance of
release.
Explore your life purpose, then share the pleasures of creating
colorful treasure maps as you develop goals in nine areas of your life.
The day builds to a crescendo of empowerment as peers and colleagues
witness and support you breathing life into your fondest visions. In
sacred celebration we co-create magic for ourselves and for the planet.
Women report dreams coming true all year from this empowerment ritual!
"I love this ritual. I come back year after year because it helps me
manifest the life of my dreams. I love having my goals in color and
form to look at daily as I watch them come true."
MOVING VISIONS INTO REALITY: Sunday, January 9, 10:30AM ~ 5:30PM
Building on Saturday's goals, weaving strategies and plans!
A delightful day of developing practical strategies to move treasured
goals toward effective action plans and time lines.
Translating goals into accomplishments through the use of mind maps and
flow charts. Enjoy extensive time in focus groups that help each
woman work out knotty problems of projects, think through steps to
develop your business, or plan ways to promote.
Energize new ways of being as you enjoy the compassionate support of the
powerful circle of women affirming your new steps with you and helping
you release past patterns and fears of success.
"The second day made the whole experience richer because we'd
developed affinity and safety as a group, and used so many different
ways from serious to silly and playful to make a commitment to our
dreams."
