Join us for a day away just to write.
ON YOUR DAY AWAY

- writing practice will be in a group setting in response to prompts, and you’ll be encouraged to read what you’ve written
- group feedback will be positive and constructive, and will help you see what’s strong in your work
- after a delicious lunch, you’ll have the afternoon to work on your own writing project or in your journal
- at the end of the day, the group will meet briefly, and you are welcome to read an excerpt from your work
- for both new and experienced writers
