Volcano, HI – Volcano’s resident writing expert Tom Peek has a secret to share… about the story of your life. Join Peek in this unique workshop entitled Writing Family History and Personal Memoir on September 22, 2012 for a journey through your past to ensure your true life tale is preserved for the future.
Learn trusted techniques to help overcome barriers that cause writer’s block, self-censorship and a lack of depth when you want to get personal. Workshop topics will cover writing with emotional power, bringing back the past with photographs and memorabilia, and revealing the truths, lies and myths that have shaped your story.
Tom Peek has written for over thirty years, both professionally and as a potent way to process and guide the personal experiences of his life. From the backwaters of the Mississippi River to receiving his Master’s degree from the University of Minnesota then exploring the South Seas as a hitchhiker, he made Hawaii Island his home where he has now lived for over twenty years.
In addition to writing, Peek has been a newspaper photographer, park ranger, wild land firefighter, astronomy guide, English and writing teacher, lighthouse keeper, piano player, composer and radio disk jockey. His debut novel “Daughters of Fire” will be released this October; a gripping adventure tale of romance, intrigue, myth and murder set amid the cultural tensions of Hawaii.
