Most people think of tarot cards as a fortune-telling device, but they're also a great tool for writing and creative thinking. Writers from John Steinbeck to Stephen King have used tarot cards for inspiration, and Italian novelist Italo Calvino went so far as to call the tarot "a machine for writing stories."
Now you can learn how to use tarot cards to develop your own short stories, novels, screenplays, and poems — with guidance and advice from Corrine Kenner, the best-selling author of Tarot for Writers. You’ll learn how tarot cards can help you break through writer’s block, help you with plotting and dialogue, and glean insights into your characters’ past, present, and future. In the Tarot for Writers Workshop, you'll learn how to:
- tap into the archetypal imagery and symbols of the tarot for writing inspiration
- create characters and stories based on randomly drawn tarot cards
- use additional cards to develop scenes, settings, dialogues, and description
 Corrine has written twelve books and edited
four anthologies, including Simple Fortunetelling with Tarot Cards, Tarot
Journaling, and Crystals for Beginners. One of her books, Tall
Dark Stranger: Tarot for Love and Romance, was a COVR Visionary Award
finalist, marking it as one of the top three divination books of 2006. She
created the Epicurean Tarot, and she's currently finishing a
book and deck set called the Wizards Tarot. Her work has also been
featured in the Encyclopedia of Tarot.
Corrine has taught tarot classes and
workshops in England, Canada, and across the United States — and
while she's recognized as one of the
world's foremost tarot experts and authors, she lives right here in
Minneapolis. Wherever she appears, students love her sense of humor and her
practical approach to New-Age subjects.
