I had the awesome honor of being invited to be a guest artist for Shimelle’s new online class, True Stories.
True Stories is an online class that starts on the 25th of October, but it can be completed at any time. It lasts three weeks, with fifteen full-colour PDF prompts delivered straight to your inbox, Mondays through Fridays. From the beginning, there is absolutely no way to ‘fall behind’ or ‘not finish’ because it’s not that kind of class. You can follow along by working on a prompt each day if you would like, but you can also keep the prompts as a reference for when they come in useful for your own scrapbooking, blogging or other story-telling needs.
True Stories covers fifteen different ways to approach your story and commit it to paper. You can use these prompts as a scrapbooker and see your journaling evolve to something that will be a treasure to read. You can use the prompts as a blogger to make your entries feel like honest, unique and compelling tales. Or you can just use them in general as a collection of ways to add a bit more excitement to your writing if you’re feeling like you’re in a rut of writing the same way on every project.
And guess what? Shimelle’s letting me giveaway a free pass to her class to one of YOU!

I love Shimelle's classes and I have taken quite a few of them. I already signed up for this one but if i win a spot will give it to my sister so she can join in as well.
This sounds like a fun class. I always worry about my journaling, I put it off until the end of the page and sometimes even put off finishing the page because I dread the journaling. Thanks.
Would LOVE a chance at this.-g
