Where's Ina?
Check out our ongoing free memoir writing workshops for seniors (and gate crashers who are young whippersnappers in their twenties or thirties on occasion). The group always has fun. We work on memoirs, and do a lot of impromptu writing based on Ina's Weird Prompts ™ in class -- these stimulate folks to write both memoirs and fiction, which Ina feels strongly improves memoir as well as fiction writing.
WHO IS THIS SERIES FOR? People who have never written, as well as published authors new to the memoir form. TIME/DATES: Mondays, 10:00 a.m. - 11:45 a.m. LOCATION: Felicia Mahood Senior Center 11338 Santa Monica Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90028 DRIVING DIRECTIONS |
Can't make it to Mondays, and interested in developing, or starting a project in one of Ina's Memoir Writing Workshops Series?
In our 10 week series programs, Ina is able to focus on members' work in-depth, and employ special tools to help participants help each other as well. Our students learn how to write and organize their memoirs so that they are richer, find -- or retain -- each writers' unique voice. And have fun in the process. Ina's book imprint, Pawpress, is also available as an avenue to getting your books out in print, and published in downloadable e-book form as well.
Please contact Ina to find out about new series, and how to set up a series for six to ten folks.
You can also sign up here to receive information in your email inbox about upcoming series around the Los Angeles area.
NOTE: Private coaching services for writing, editing and publishing your memoirs are also available, in person, by phone and virtually. Contact Ina to find out more.

What the folks at Castle Green say about the upcoming Tour....
Castle Green to open doors for tour Sunday June 26, 2011 Among Pasadena’s many claims to fame is the beautiful, and to some, mysterious, Castle Green, built in 1898 as an annex to the resort Hotel Green.
Now privately owned apartments, the building will be open for its annual Summer Tour on Sunday afternoon, June 26, 2011.
One of Pasadena’s last historic hotels is now the private residence of designers, musicians, artists, collectors, and other dwellers.
Those interested in history, creative interior design and cultural heritage will see the original interior of this unique city landmark, normally closed to the public.
While trained docents will be available, you may walk at your own pace through the original public rooms and over 20 individual apartments. See the Grand Salon, the Moorish and Turkish Rooms, the Palm Room, Sunroom
and Veranda, the open cage elevator, fireplaces, hand-carved woodwork, and marble staircases, the bridge, artist studios, and the Penthouse.
The semi-annual tours of the Castle Green are organized by volunteer members of the nonprofit support arm, Friends of the Castle Green, whose mission is to provide and implement restoration to the building.
All funds raised through the tours and merchandise sales are dedicated to the preservation of this landmark building.
