March 7-8 2009 at St Katharine's Dock
This week I'm getting ready to present at the Design Your Creative Life Conference which will take place at St Katharine's Dock in London at the very lovely Dickens Inn (pictured). I'm excited to be appearing with people that I greatly admire, including the novelist Fay Weldon; my own coach and artist of life, Cynthia Morris (who I can't wait to meet!); and America's foremost creativity coach Eric Maisel.
I feel extremely privileged to appear in this line-up. And I know it's going to be an excellent weekend. The intention is to provide those attending with insight into what supports a thriving and dynamic creative life. I would love to see you there!
I have really enjoyed preparing my own presentations. These will be interactive events, designed to give you the tools to really focus on your creative life and to thrive as a creative artist - in terms of inspiration, productivity, profitability and artistic satisfaction - whether you are a writer, an artist, a performance artist, musician or creative entrepreneur.
My own presentations will be on:
- Money and Art - Rules for Artistic Freelancers
- The Organic Process of Creativity: Busting the myths around planning in advance
- Inventing Confidence: A creative artists' guide to self-belief
I've been having fun pulling together all the material that I've been working on in my years as a novelist and coach, and I have some great exercises that are designed to allow you to leave with a clear idea of how to be not only successful as an artist but also fulfilled.
Other presentations over the weekend will include:
* Creativity for Life
* Giving and Receiving Feedback
* Five Keys to Finishing your Creative Project
* The Rigour and Discipline Required
* Happiness without Goal Setting
* Creativity and Self Care
* The Agonies of Writing (humourous presentation!)
Other speakers include Susan Raeburn, clinical psychologist, Suzy Greaves - a leading self-development expert, author and journalist and Swedish comedian, Maggan Hammar.
I would love the opportunity to connect with you at this conference and am so looking forward to it - do let me know if you come along as it would be great to speak with your personally. I encourage you to give yourself the tools you need to make creating easier and more enjoyable and join us for a weekend of inspiration.
The cost of the conference is now £195 and you can read more about and book online here. There's also a special offer whereby four people can book for the price of three - so why not bring your friends?
If you'd like to speak to me about the conference, please do e-mail me and I'd love to tell you more.
