Attention, creative writers: Let's write together! You bring a pen and notebook, and we'll provide unique writing prompts and examples to spark your creativity. Creatively engage and generate ideas during the session, then develop them afterwards. Attend a poetry, fiction, or memoir/personal essay session or attend them all! You're welcome to share a few lines out loud, but it is never required. It's all in the name of inspiration and fun in a no-pressure setting. Bring a friend!
