We’ve talked a lot here lately about Twitter and other virtual experiences helping writers reclaim their voices.   But some times, after long days of blogging, tweetering, writing Facebook notes and commenting on my friends blogs, my own voice starts making me feel slightly nauseated.  If you feel the same way, perhaps you’d like to join me when I take Polly Frost’s Reblocking seminar.

Polly Frost, you’re saying to yourself … Is this the same Polly Frost who became famous in New Age circles with her “Releasing the Writer Within” seminars in the early 1990’s?

Yes, it’s really me. Let me tell you a little about my journey of discovery.

I started exploring “releasing” techniques back in the late ”˜80s, when I realized that I’d been working on my first novel for fourteen years and had only committed two sentences to paper.

As you may remember, Polly became famous teaching her releasing techniques to other writers.

You’ve seen the photos in yoga and New Age catalogues of my students weeping with joy at finally being able finally to commit words to paper.

After years of teaching, Polly finally went back to writing… or at least she tried.  Along the way she met the Internet and quickly became a blogger:

My “What I Ate for Lunch” Tumblr photoblog earned consistently high rankings on Technorati. Fame came to me as well as one of the most prolific photo commenters at Flickr.

It didn’t go well:

But after a year of madness and intoxication I took an honest look at myself. I took an honest look around me. And I didn’t like what I saw.

There was too much writing. And it was everywhere. It was time for me to help writers everywhere find some balance. That’s when I developed:

THE POLLY FROST BOOT CAMP FOR SHUTTING YOU UP!

On a more serious note, thanks to her web series The Fold, I consider Polly Frost to be the most innovative sex scene writer alive.  Read more about her groundbreaking seminar here.
