Monthly Writing Group In-Person
Calling all writers, aspiring writers, and anyone interested in writing! Join us at the Library to share your writing, enjoy others' work, and receive/provide feedback. All genres (fiction, poetry, nonfiction) and forms are welcome. The group is held on:
- The first Monday of every month from 5:30-7 PM
- The third Monday of every month from 10:15-11:45 AM
If a meeting falls on a holiday, we will generally try to reschedule.
After introductions, we'll do a brief creative exercise if time allows, then go around the room to share completed work or work in progress. Each participant will have the opportunity to share, then the other members of the group will reflect, ask questions, and provide constructive feedback. (We'll cap sharing at around five minutes to be mindful of time, and we'll agree to ground rules that will help keep the discussion respectful and productive.) Our goal is to provide participants with a welcoming space to share their work, receive feedback, and build community through writing.
Participants are strongly encouraged to register for each session they plan to attend (see below). Sessions with one or fewer registrants will be canceled. For a given session, please email the work you plan to share (no more than about five minutes of reading, please) to Adult Services Librarian Eric White at ewhite@estesvalleylibrary.org, and Eric will print a copy for each registrant to use for reading and commenting. Please do your best to fit your work on a single double-sided sheet. All copies will be returned to the submitter.
For more about the group (format, ground rules, suggestions for a productive session), please see the attached document. We hope you'll join us!
