WriteGirl Workshops

Each month in the WriteGirl season (September through June), mentors lead creative writing workshops for the entire membership in their area of expertise, such as Poetry, Songwriting, Journalism, Screenwriting, Creative Nonfiction, etc.

Workshops are lively, interactive and rich with writing tools, tips, techniques and shared secret recipes. There are moments when the room is completely still except for a slice of paper now and then and the scratch of pens. There are other moments when questions and answers burst out, offering sudden inspiration for everyone. There are special guests, music, outdoor adventures and always plenty of nutritious snacks and drinks.

WriteGirl workshops represent a coming together of our membership, our combined creative power and our inspiration. The results, some of which are captured in our newsletters and publications, are always surprising and impressive.
