This Weekend

As I told you all a little bit about this weekend and my being in Colorado for the Colorado Romance Writers, Inc monthly meeting, I thought I'd expound a bit more. I'm very excited about this weekend. We are having Mary O'Gara:
Join us September 10
ALL DAY WORKSHOP - Mary O'Gara - Is There a Psychic Character in Your Future?
How are psychic characters different? What do I have to know to make them seem real and work in my story? What kinds of trouble do they get into that "normal" people don't? What kinds of trouble do they avoid because of their gifts? What does it feel like to have natural gifts, and learn to use them? Why do psychics use cards and other tools? Are all psychics healers? Is there a difference? How do psychics get to work on missing persons and criminal cases?
Mary O'Gara, a professional psychic and a fellow writer from Albuquerque, NM, will answer those questions and more. She has been a working astrologer and psychic for 29 years and has been teaching classes in psychic development, tarot and astrology for 22 of those years.
Mary’s talk will include:
The physiology of psychic and intuitive gifts. Physical receptor areas in the body and what a psychic senses when using the four intuitive senses.
How to turn the psychic senses on and off at will.
Tools and toys psychics use to enhance and extend their abilities - or to allow them to detach from emotionally painful work. Mary will bring part of her own collection of tarot decks, crystals, pendulums, and other useful tools.
What it's like to be a psychic working on missing persons, murder, arson and other criminal cases - the good, the bad, and the humorous.
How to develop believable psychic characters and use them as either heroines or secondary characters in your own stories.
PLEASE NOTE: Continental breakfast will be available from the hotel for a small fee.
