Word!

In this generative workshop we’ll explore things we do together as the subject for our writing, working together to do the writing, brainstorming how humans get together and work together: picnic, reunion, ball game, kiss. We’ll generate a group poem around one of the topics then writers will take ideas to their own page to write individual works.  Finally, we’ll share product and give soft feedback. Whether you write poetry or prose, this workshop is for you.
