In this energizing workshop, author Laura Resau will guide you through a series of fun, flower-themed creative writing activities, with time to share and bond with other participants. Using flowers as our inspiration, we’ll focus on enriching our writing with multi-sensory details, symbolism, emotional depth, character exploration, and more. Writers of poetry or prose, of any experience level, will find this a liberating workshop to get our creative nectar flowing. Just bring a sense of play, and a love of words and flowers!
Join us after the workshop for an author talk with Laura where she will discuss her latest novel, The Alchemy of Flowers.
