A new topic every month!

March's writing topic: The Upside of Anxiety


Why are fear and uncertainty such good things for writers? And how do you get those feelings down on the page?
We'll discuss these topics at our monthly meeting of Writers & Scribblers. Attendants are encouraged to bring a page of their own work-in-progress to share, especially if it's a page that features anxiety.

We hope you can join us!

The group is open to those interested in writing and the publishing process. Meetings are run by using a 'pass the torch' method; everyone is encouraged to participate, but it is not a requirement. 

We meet on the second Wednesday of each month at 6:15 p.m. at the Durango Public Library.

AGE GROUP: | Adults |

EVENT TYPE: | Poetry/Writing | More Fun Stuff! | Art/Film/Music |
