Is creativity important to writing? Join author and teacher Karleen Koen for a 2-hour workshop that focuses on creativity:

Whose? Yours, wherever it’s wandered off to.

Yours--but, oh no, you never had any to begin with.

Yes, that creativity.

This dip into what feeds the deep level of self from which creativity springs will begin or renew a lifelong relationship with both wildness and that which is most soothing, the paradox that is creativity. We’ll discuss the importance of creativity to different kinds of writing, as will definitions of creativity.

Questions, personal reflection, discussion, and exercises written and physical make up this class. There will be writing done in class, so please make sure it doesn’t disconnect Zoom if you use your computer to write.
