SUMMER CLASSES open all summer long! Begin when you like, or decide as a writer’s group what works best for your schedule.

SUMMER BOOK CLUB: Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury July + August + September *Discussion on September 14, 7 – 9 p.m. Eastern

 *TENDING OUR GARDENS starts this summer. Ever wonder how you’ll find time to transcribe the poems you’ve drafted, or to research new places to submit? I think it is easier in co-play fashion. Let’s try doing this together! After the Front Porches, I’ll leave the Google Meet open for silent gathering from our journals and submitting/attending to our writing selves once a month. These events will be free, and after a brief “hello,” we’ll work together for an hour. These will be on the same dates/link as the Front Porches (click on the Front Porch image above those Sundays!), and run from 1:30-2:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Hope to see you there!
