Writing Wild: A Storytelling and Creative Writing Workshop

About this event

The Portsmouth Public Library hosts Writing Wild: A Storytelling and Creative Writing Workshop The group meets at the library one Wednesday a month for a focused, six-month workshop dedicated to essays and short fiction. Writers are asked to commit to attending most sessions, producing 8+ pages of original work, discussing supplemental readings and providing thoughtful and detailed feedback to other attendees. The goal is to build a consistent, productive, and supportive community for sharing and improving your writing! If this writing group is full, you may add your name to the waiting list. If you are interested in writing groups that meet strictly online, contact the library to learn about our online-only writing groups. Registration is required. Space is very limited.
