Writing heals – scientists say so – and here’s how this workshop will put this discovery to work in your life. We’ll focus on one poem per session, as a class deciding what word, phrase, or line especially speaks to us. Then we write— a haiku or a paragraph/prose poem, or the first line of a memoir. Share with others, if comfortable.
