Welcome to Wellspring Writers, the website for Sharon Bray.
Wellspring Writers is the moniker I use to identify my workshops and the community of writers who attend my them. Why "Wellspring" Writers? The wellspring is where we begin: we write from the heart, without judgment or criticism, sharing the images, memories, poems and stories that have their roots in the deepest parts of ourselves.
Whatever your writing goals, I provide a safe and supportive environment in which to write and learn, one that is meant to inspire and encourage your unique voice and style. For more information, click on the links below.
The most regretful people on earth are those who felt the call to creative work, who felt their own creative power restive and uprising, and gave to it neither power or time. --Mary Oliver
