Come write with us! No experience is required. Writing is good for your brain and wellness. We will spend time writing each week based on prompts from poetry, literature, pictures, or sounds. Then we will listen to each other’s writing (reading what you wrote is optional, of course) and highlight the strengths and creativity displayed by our fellow writers. This group is for adults and is open to all levels of writing. Everyone can create!
