Thinking Through Your Pen: Creative Writing for Busy Adults

Come join us after work for an hour of creative writing practice focused on idea generation, finding your written voice, and building your confidence. Perhaps you have a novel buried down deep itching to get out, maybe you love poetry but have felt unsure of how to start, or it could be that you are just looking for a fun way to stretch your creativity muscles or to expand your vocabulary. There is room for everyone! This club will involve fresh and fun exercises each week that offer you the opportunity to think differently, approach ideas from new angles, and hone your craft. While the instruction will be in English, you are free to write in whatever languages you choose. English will be the ‘Lingua Franca’ of our sessions, in the sense that we will use English for instructions and discussion. However, do not be dissuaded from participating if you don’t feel confident writing in English. You can write in whatever language you choose This is intended as an informal, relaxed, fun activity.
