In the oldest tradition of writers groups from the past The Inklings, The Bloomsbury Group, Algonquin Round Table, Shakespeare And Company Writers and Ciao Domenica (i.e. In 1816 Percy Shelley and Mary Shelley spent a summer with Lord Byron, John William Polidori, and Claire Clairmont creating some of the most important fiction in the English language.) I will spring for the first bottle of absinthe and it will be Pernod (not kidding I know a guy). Painters, Writers, Musicians, Muses, models and …

I'm an artist. I'm a writer, singer and musical theatre afficiando. But mostly, I'm someone who seeks to take this love of the creative arts and make it into a business. I'm sure there are many others out there who are pursuing, or have been successful at, similar goals. So, if you've got this nagging idea to start your own creative arts business or have one that's thriving getting together to exchange ideas and insights would be beneficial to all of us!

Artists tend to create their art in solitude, then show their work to non-artists or the public for feed back. Most often the feedback is based on personal taste or a bias towards a certain type of art. Do you ever long for constructive feedback, the kind that helps you dig deep and find what you need to keep your work fresh and evolving? The kind that your only your fellow artists, your peers, can bring? Me too! That's why I started Juxtapose, for the fellowship, support and critical feedback t …

As a non-published, non-professional creative writer I decided to start offering writing workshops to foster love of writing in others. You don't have to know where to put a comma or what a conjunction is in order to use writing as a tool for personal expression. We all tend to get swamped with everyday responsibilities, stresses and work.  As critical as the two out of three of them are we also need time for ourselves.  Time to nurture our love of writing. Once a month we'll hold a themed wor …
