Marla Kay Houghteling, a Michigan Writers member, will conduct a workshop “Writing Poems from the World in Front of You” at the Bay View Association (a Chautauqua on Lake Michigan) on July 9, 11, 16, 18 from 1 to 3 p.m. The sessions will include using model poems as guides for writing one’s own poems by drawing on observation and memory.
Activities will help you use visual note taking, writing, and expressive mark making to help you record memories, observations, imaginings, stories, and visual narratives. All skills and experience levels welcome.
Interested in kickstarting your summer writing plans? Consider the Interlochen Writer’s Retreat-a favorite among many of our members. It’s a four-day literary immersion.
Spending regular time in literary company can do great things for your writing. Join Teresa Scollon for a four-week poetry workshop beginning the week of January 14.
Beginning in January 2013, all Michigan Writers workshops will be offered to non-members for a modest fee of $10. MW members can continue to attend all workshops without cost.
