The session kicks off with a quick, engaging writing prompt to get the creative juices flowing. Following the warm-up, attendees have the opportunity to share excerpts of their work-in-progress to receive supportive, positive critiques from fellow local writers. It's an inclusive, drop-in environment designed to keep your creative momentum going through the summer.
