Let's face it, writing is hard. From choosing what to write about, to crafting your first draft, to the agonizing revision process, writers live in a world of day-to-day stress; yet, we love what we do! Join a group of like-minded writers as we share our own experiences with writing, whether for publishing or simply for our own enjoyment. We will share our creations based on a monthly writing prompt, then participate in a group exercise. Attendees may also bring their work for optional critique. May's writing prompt is, "If you could have any super power, what would it be and why?" Writers of all genres are welcome.
