I once ran workshops for the New York Writers Coalition, which provides a quiet space for New Yorkers to write and share for 1-2 hours a week. Workshops are open to all at public libraries or are held at Rikers, nursing homes, community centers, alternative high schools, parks, etc.\n\nWhat you'll get: In response to specific writing prompts, me-time to write and if you so desire, share it with us for affirmative feedback. I will provide instructions. We'll likely do two writing rounds.\n\nWho's welcome: you, your kids, your spouse, etc.\n\nWhat you will need: a notepad, pen/pencil, a willingness to trust your voice, and encourage each other. (Remember, you're under no obligation to share what you write)\n\nOptional: preferred beverage, other treats, etc.", "facilitators": "Carla Murphy", "break": "y", "everyone": "", "facilitators_twitter": "", "length": "", "notepad": "", "room": "", "talk": "", "timeblock": "fri-10am", "transcription": "", "event_dtstart": "2020-07-17T10:00:00", "event_dtend": "2020-07-17T11:00:00", "event_tzid": "America/New_York", "event_uid": "srccon-2020/fri-writing-workshop"}
