Dear Diary: Journaling for Creativity (Thursdays, 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. CT)

Facilitator: Jenni
Series Length: Ongoing (Join anytime!)
Suggested Supplies: Pen/pencil and paper or a notebook

Journals can be so much more than just reporting your daily activities. In this one-hour class, you'll be guided through writing prompts and idea-generation techniques used by writers at all levels. Together, we'll discover how to turn a blank page into an inspiring space to play with creative ideas and allow your dreams to flourish. You will also have the opportunity to share your writing in a supportive online environment. No prior writing experience is necessary.

For each class, you'll need a pen and paper (or a notebook).

Each class will take place from 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. CT. Please note that we will meet weekly in May, and then every other week in June (June 6 and 20).

You are welcome to attend all sessions of the class, or just drop in when you are available. Just sign up once to receive a reminder and Zoom link every week!

• If you are using your phone or a tablet, the easiest way to access Zoom is by downloading the Zoom app, as shown here: https://youtu.be/0NBARnBxk-Y (Note that while this video shows an iPhone, other phones will have a similar process. The “App Store” for Android phones is called the “Play Store” or “Google Play Store.”)
