Viki Winterton interviews Fran Shaw!
Fran Shaw, Ph.D. is a longtime practitioner in a spiritual discipline, a professor teaching writing at the University of Connecticut, and an award-winning author whose works include Notes on The Next Attention, Writing My Yoga, and 50 Ways to Help You Write.
Her new book Lord Have Murphy: Waking Up in the Spiritual Marketplace explores with great fun how contact with a finer Attention awakens us to a completely different level of being.
A writer from a young age, she created and put on plays at her elementary school, got published nationally at age 8, and at 15, won the Top Senior Award for short story in the annual Connecticut Scholastic Writing Awards competition.
A talented editor and writing coach, Fran teaches at the University of Connecticut at Stamford and conducts workshops across the country. She engages people in writing experiments that begin with a shift into greater awareness from which words freely flow. Some of these exercises appear in her books Writing My Yoga: Poems for Presence and the all-in-one guide 50 Ways to Help You Write.
