Are you a new writer in search of support and encouragement? Have you already started down the writing path but repeatedly experience creative drought? Or perhaps you’d like to develop solid writing skills or find the perfect inspiration before taking another step on your writing journey. Join us for our Writers’ Group devoted to those who are relatively new to the craft of writing and would like to develop their skills, or to those who have just dabbled in writing but would like to take a deeper dive. We’ll explore various topics, including how to find your creative flow, build effective writing habits, and create momentum in your writing. Whether it’s working with writing prompts, learning tips and tricks from the masters, or sharing your writing in a supportive and enthusiastic environment, let’s honor that talent and discover where creativity (and practice) can lead us!
