A Writing Garden
A Three-Day Creative Writing Workshop in the backyard, with author Indira Ganesan
Weds. 7/14 - Fri. 7/16
9am - Noon daily
$225/advance registration required
Explore the possibilities in creating a writing practice. In this class, we will use prompts to create short writing exercises. By sharing raw work with each other, we will begin to work with these starts, weed and cultivate to create the beginnings of short stories or essays. We will let them grow, and discover the one we want to work with, to nurture to full growth. Writing, like gardening, takes practice, experimentation, and revision. Come into the writing garden and play!
