You’re invited to Write NOW! A 2-hour workshop where we’ll discuss elements of writing, experiment with prompts, and help you to add depth to your characters and overall story. Whether you’re an experienced writer, want to dust off your notebook, or just want to try something new, join us and Write NOW! We will provide a safe space to share work and inspire one another to keep writing!
Writing is an act of individual expression, but writers in community can nurture and support one another, fueling the creative spirits of all who participate. Writing in community provides greater perspective on our own writing.
We (Nikki and Lea) met in 2009 in a Zona Rosa writing group in Fayetteville, AR. We’ve both been life-long writers and continued writing even after Zona Rosa disbanded. After a few twists and turns in life, we have reunited, picked up our pens, and decided to focus on building a writing community to encourage others to lean into writing, expression, creativity.
