January 22, 2010 - My Novel Just Ate My Cat
Greetings Fellow Writers!
Yes, we've just reached the Third Week of 2010 - I'm feeling worn out already. How are you doing today? Is your new year off to a good start? Have you had a chance to do much writing?
If you haven't written much yet this year, I encourage you to take a look at today's freewriting prompt below - fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent of that desire to to clean the bathroom. And if you're working on a novel or another long piece of fiction, we have two article links below you'll be very interested in - Curing the Urge to Write and Researching Your Material.
If your e-mail is plaintext, or if you have trouble with any of the links below, please visit our Newsletter online at www.12writingworkshopsonline.com/newsletter.
My Novel Just Ate My Cat
Do you feel lonely? Unappreciated? Financially Unstable? As if your life is no more than a slow death by papercut? Then you might be a writer. Visit Ryan's Blog for for information regarding the treatment of Deteriorative Autoimmune Writing Disease of the Liver.

1-2-Writing Newsletter - January 12, 2010
Greetings Fellow Writers!
After a long period of reduced activity, the "New and Revised" 1-2-Writing returns to provide workshops and inspiration for 2010. For links to all of our new features, please visit our homepage at www.12writingworkshopsonline.com. And please pardon our dust as you stop by - a great deal of the revised site is still under construction, but we'll have more up and running soon.
New! 1-2-Writing Members Area
For those who have taken our Summer Freewriting courses, we've decided to expand this program into our Members Area on the website. Through the Members Area, you'll receive weekly freewriting prompts as well as access to our Creative Writers Support Forum. In addition, throughout the year we'll be offering additional workshops free of charge to our members (and we all know how cool free stuff can be). To sign up, just fill in the form from our homepage or reply back to this e-mail.
Upcoming Classes
For January, we're bringing back the weekly freewriting prompt starting this Friday. Every Friday, all our members will receive a prompt to inspire some fun writing over the weekend, and then you can post your work for comments in the forums.
Starting next Monday the 18th (Martin Luther King Day), we'll have a one-week "intensive" freewriting course. We'll have three freewriting assignments (10 min each plus some additional "prep" to get everyone ready to write) for the 18th, 20th, and 22nd. Space is limited - the course fee will be $20. Visit our Registration Page to sign up.
