EXQUISITE COLLABORATION PROMPT
You're invited to contribute to another community poem! As always, to participate, all you have to do is respond to a prompt and the poem will create itself.

Our prompt for January 2022 is: ON THE HORIZON

This month, you can decide how many lines you want to contribute - each submission can be up to three lines! Your lines can be full sentences, fragments, lists, single words, rhyme, prose, haiku (see what I did there, with the three line option? ), whatever you want.
* If you've never participated, you can get more information and see past poems here.
* If you'd like to jump right in, click here to go to the current prompt page.

CREATIVE SATURDAYS

Join me for a little time to let your creativity run wild - no writing or art experience necessary. Seriously. I mean that. As with all of my workshops/classes, this is a safe, informal, high support environment meant to provide a time of reflection, play, and creative recharging.

January 15, 2022 cancelled due to rising Covid cases locally
Stay tuned for February and March dates

Interested in learning more about how the basics of improv can be applied to your daily life to help build self esteem, foster better communication and team work, embrace creativity, and help you learn to play again? I'm putting together some workshops for the late winter/early spring! You don't even need to have a desire to perform. This is just your opportunity to try something new in a small group, high support, lovingly encouraging, no fail environment.
Email me for more information or get on the info list.- even if you're just curious but aren't ready to commit.
