- share in a supportive writing community
- explore writing skills offered through the class

You are most welcome to join us! The class is held the second Tuesdays of each month from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. noon on Zoom from September 9, 2025 to May 12, 2026. You will have the opportunity to share two pages of your writing with a small group during each of the monthly meetings. Keep in mind that some members will be new to the group and others have participated last year. All are welcome wherever you are in your writing journey.
Materials will be posted each month on the Sharepoint website, usually two weeks before the class. You will be able to access the site at any time during the month.
