SUMMARY:Historical Fiction Talk: Using highlights from Icelandic History\, 1918-1944
DESCRIPTION:Sigga of Reykjavikby Solveig Eggerz\nAuthor Solveig Eggerz presents the process of making characters central to a story that is historic in nature—how historic events impact the characters’ lives\, as well as how vibrant characters breathe life into a historic period.

Refreshments will be served. \n.\nAbout the Author: \nSolveig Eggerz\, a native of Iceland\, is a storyteller\, writer\, and teacher. Her award-winning novel\, Seal Woman\, based on historical events\, is set in Iceland\, Germany\, and Poland.

She is a former reporter for the Alexandria Gazette-Packet. Her essays and stories have appeared in The Delmarva Review\, Palo Alto Review\, and The Northern Virginia Review. \nIn 2008 Solveig published her first novel\, Seal Woman.

The program is focused on supporting relationships in removing artistic blocks and fostering confidence. The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path To Higher Creativity is a self-help book by author Julia Cameron. The book was originally produced to assist individuals with artistic creative recovery\, by teaches techniques and exercises to assist in gaining self-confidence in harnessing creative talents and skills. \nEach week we will meet to discuss each chapter of the book\, our daily journaling practice (via “The Morning Pages”)\, weekly Artist’s Dates that you select to inspire yourself and other insights that you wish to share on this special journey. Each participant will receive The Artist’s Way book and journal for the program\, as well as access to a Facebook Group and a group of other artists and creatives moving through the journey with you. \nNOTE: Materials fee pays for “The Artist’s Way Starter Kit”\, including Cameron’s two most important Artist’s Way tools: “The Artist’s Way” and “The Artist’s Way Morning Pages Journal”. Participants may also bring their own copy of the book and a journal and decline the materials fee. \n\n\nAbout the Instructor: Sharon J.
