LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Local author, Jordan O’Halloran, will begin teaching weekly writing workshops at the Main Street Gallery in Lakeport.

Beginning Saturday, May 28, her writing workshops will be offered to the public every week on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. $10 per class. Registration is not required.

This workshop will aim to make writing accessible and fun! Suitable for all ages, this writing class will help participants learn writing aspects such as: putting your story into pages, the basics of constructing a story and just making writing fun.

All are welcome to this inclusive, supportive, positivity only group. Learn about the excitement of writing in a safe, artistic environment.

O'Halloran is a self-published writer located in Kelseyville Riviera. Her first book, “Clean Up on Aisle Three,” tells the story of teenager Lucy McBride.

When getting ready for work one morning, Lucy finds her boss, Raymond, dead on aisle three. Lucy is ready to leave Arizona after graduation, but with Raymond's murder, she's stuck between being there for family or finding her own happiness.

This book has amassed a great deal of success and O’Halloran would love to share her love of writing with the community.

“I am teaching a writing workshop to bring my love of words and storytelling to Lake County,” said O’Halloran. She was inspired to teach after writing her book and being approached by locals who would tell her they have always wanted to write. She wants to bring her own joy of writing to the people and help them see that their stories are important.
