    logo_wellredcoyoteSedona AZ (January 13, 2013) – Denise Roessle, is the author of Second-Chance Mother, will conduct a special workshop for writers – “Everyone Has a Story: Make This the Year that You Write Yours” – on Saturday, January 19 at 2:00 pm, at The Well Red Coyote bookstore in West Sedona.

    Whether you’re writing a memoir for publication or want to record your life stories for future generations, this workshop will provide practical information on how to get started, overcoming the fears associated with telling your truth, and take-home writing prompts.

    photo_deniseroessleSecond-Chance Mother is a multi-generational memoir of adoption loss, reconnection, and redemption, set around Roessle’s reunion with the son she gave up for adoption when she was 19 years-old. Her struggle with sharing her experience — from revisiting her painful past to finding the strength to reveal the truth — has provided her with the insight to help others write their stories.

    A professional member of Society of Southwestern Authors (and past president of the Santa Cruz Valley Chapter), National Association of Memoir Writers, and Story Circle Network, Denise’s personal essays and short stories have garnered numerous awards.

    The Well Red Coyote is located at 3190 W. Highway 89A, at the corner of 89A and Dry Creek Road. For more information, call 282-2284 or go to www.wellredcoyote.com.

    We Have Been Thoroughly Trained!
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    Throughout the years, we have been trained. Part of the training is to see others as trained, but not ourselves. Even though we are the others that others are trained to see as trained, we tend to miss that little nuance. The training says we must know what’s right and speak out when we see something that runs contrary to our understanding of rightness. We don’t stop to realize that what we see as right isn’t exactly right or it would be the right version that everyone in their right mind knew as right. There are billions of versions of right but ours is the only real right one. Seems fishy, doesn’t it? We spend our days, our lives, catching others — the wrong ones — doing and saying things in support of their versions of right and our training has us jumping on the critical bandwagon lest we be painted in support of the wrong right. What in this crazy world moves us with such amazing force to crave rightness, to need to be seen as right? Read more→
