Ongoing Workshops:
What is it: A new writer’s group for women ages 40 and over
begins Saturday, February 20, 2016 at 1:30 PM. I’m Nancy Hughett and I’m an active member of the Morning
Coffee Art & Writing Group with Maryellen Burns. I am starting a
monthly writing group for women ages 40-ish and over. We invite practiced
writers who write fiction and/or creative nonfiction. Poetry is welcome
but not the focus of the group.
When: 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM - Saturday, February 20
Where: email me your contact information at coyote1@surewest.net and a little bit
about yourself and what you are writing and I’ll send you the address.
Why: Mutual & constructive support for women writers
A little bit about me: For several years I’ve been working on a
speculative fiction novel that explores women’s roles, gender identity,
religion (and spirituality) and politics. I have a number of unfinished
short stories. I also write poetry. I’ve written for many years and
am focused now on the challenge of finishing things.
Please contact me by e-mail at coyote1@surewest.net
if you are interested, and please also give me your phone number. I
will send you the location (my house).
Please note that my e-mail shows up as ‘Rick Codina.’ He is my
spouse, and we share an e-mail address.
