WRITERS ARE WE

Develop your writing life and your prose. Writers of all genres and all experience levels are invited to enjoy the spirit and energy of being among other writers. Each session will start with food and talk on craft. Then, it’s time to write.

Come just for Table Talk, for the Writing Workshop or for both.

5:30-6:30 Table Talk ($5)  
Open to all writers and friends of writers; drop-ins are welcome.
Topics vary. Learn more.

6:30-9:00 Writing Workshop ($25) 
Open to all writers and friends of writers; drop-ins are welcome.

The workshop will begin with a short writing “warm up” followed by two more guided, timed exercises that are intended to generate new pieces of prose. Writers are invited to read their work to the group for response.

Throughout each week, participants receive on-going inspiration through email, and if desired, feedback on manuscripts. One manuscript consult for up to twenty pages of prose is included in the fee for the entire session.

Scheduling is flexible. Come to one, come to all.
