Some gifts are not meant to be wrapped
They're meant to be written.

You probably remember someone’s laugh around the Christmas table, your favorite cookies and the impatience to open your presents.

Christmas has a way of bringing ourselves connecting to our stories. For this special edition, we will this holiday as your writing starting point: a memory, a person, a place that feels like home — or a moment you want to capture.

You do not need a perfect Christmas story. Just something that matters to you, and a little space to explore it with care.

Your December evening

Slow down.
Remember. Write.

01

Hour 1

Find the memory

We begin gently, with grounding and guided prompts. Think of a person, a tradition, a place, or a moment from your Christmas archive. Together, we find one small doorway into your story.

02

Hour 2

Give it a page

Settle into a protected 45-minute writing block with soft Christams music. Use the printed toolkit to follow your memory onto the page. I will be there to guide you when you get stuck.

03

Hour 3

Make room for connection

We come back together over a glass of wine or warm tea. Read a page if you would like to, listen, and celebrate what you have written.

MEET YOUR HOST

Meet your writing coach

Hello! I’m Lisa Camilla La Colla — Creative Writing Coach, writer, actress, and founder of Storytelling With Love.

I created A Chapter of My Life as a different kind of writing room: intimate, guided and completely free from the pressure to turn your whole life into a book in one sitting. My role during the evening is to give you structure to feel held, freedom to follow what appears on the page, space where your story can be met with curiosity rather than judgment.

A story does not have to be extraordinary to be worth keeping. Sometimes, the smallest memory holds the most love.

I cannot wait to welcome you into my Vienna studio, pour you a glass of tea, and help you bring your unique story to life.

“This event touches the heart and opens people up in the best light. It is a great way to connect with your self and other women in a safe, vulnerable place that allows you to realize that our greatest stories are usually much quieter within us than we expect before we find the freedom to put pen to paper.”

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to know what I want to write about?

Not at all! The prompts I'll provide you with are designed to help you find a memory, theme or moment to explore once you are in the room.

Do I need writing experience?

Nope. This evening is designed to be accessible whether you write regularly or have not written creatively in years.

What should I bring with me?

Just yourself and your favorite pen if you have one. I will provide your beautiful printed writing toolkit and paper.

In which language will the workshop be held?

The coaching and guidance will be in English.

Will I have to read my story aloud?

That would be just wonderful. Sharing your story is the most beautiful moment of the evening. Everybody will listen to you carefully and give you insightful and loving thoughts.

Will there be photos?

Photos may be taken during the event. You will be able to choose whether identifiable photographs of you can later be published by Storytelling with Love. Opting out of publication does not affect your participation.

Can my chapter be published?

Every participant may submit her piece for consideration in the Storytelling with Love online magazine. Submission is totally optional.

How many people attend?

The event is intentionally limited to four women to preserve the intimate, supportive atmosphere of the writing room.

What if I book and can no longer attend?

You may transfer your booking to the next A Chapter of My Life event if your request reaches lisa@storytellingwithlove.com at least 14 days before the start of your originally booked event. We will confirm the replacement date with you. This transfer option does not limit any statutory withdrawal or refund rights.

Can I cancel my booking or get a refund?

If something comes up, please email lisa@storytellingwithlove.com as soon as you can, so we can work out the next steps together. If you would like to move your booking to the next event, please let me know at least 14 days before this event starts.

That notice period is only for moving your booking—it does not shorten any legal right you have to cancel or receive a refund.
