Calling all local writers! Are you in need of a little inspiration?
Our Writers Group is going to be hosted at the CATFE LOUNGE, and is scheduled for THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4TH
Bring along your journals, notebooks, or laptops (we'll have a sufficient power supply for your chargers), and set up in their cafe space to start networking with fellow scribes.
Exercises: Library staff will facilitate a series of writing exercises to get your creative juices flowing! We'll provide you with prompts for poems, micro-essays, or even something that could serve as the first page of your next short story, memoir, or novel!
If we have any volunteers, then we'll hopefully have at least one live reading toward the end of the program.
Questions? Email us at: amber@fadl.org
This event will be hosted AT THE CATFE LOUNGE: 686 Livernois
Note: We won't be joined by any cats, but you'll likely be able to meet casual cat enthusiasts!
