We who live in the South Carolina Lowcountry are fortunate to be surrounded by its extraordinary nature – the marsh and its seasons, live oaks dripping with Spanish moss, 180 degrees of ever-changing sky, marsh and shore birds, crabs and dolphins and fish, the bright sunshine that lights this southern world, and of course, water…the ocean and rivers and their tides. In this workshop you’ll kayak on the Chechessee River with guides from the Maritime Center for a morning immersion in Carolina’s nature at its finest.

Then – like Henry David Thoreau on Walden Pond – you’ll take pen to paper and write about any part of the adventure you choose. Anyone at any level of writing, from rank beginner to pretty darn good, can write using a method called writing practice, developed by writing workshop guru Natalie Goldberg and presented in her classic book, Writing Down the Bones. You’ll learn how to get rid of the self-critic so that your thoughts flow freely onto the page. And you’ll leave with a chunk of nature writing and a memory of time well spent.

Dress for a journey on the water, and be sure to bring sunscreen, a water bottle, notebook or journal, and several pens.

Katherine Tandy Brown has explored the world as a freelance travel writer for 20-plus years. She has taught memoir writing, travel writing, writing practice, et al, in the USCB’s OLLI Continuing Ed program, Tech College of the Lowcountry, Pat Conroy Literary Center, Palm Key and Thera Vista Retreat Centers, her downtown Beaufort cottage…and nature writing on a sandbar in the Beaufort River, her favorite classroom so far!
