SUMMARY:A Generative Writing Workshop for Adults - Ames Writers Collective &  Ames Public Library
DESCRIPTION:Do you dream of writing “someday\,” but don’t know where to start? Perhaps you already write\, but you’re stuck. \nJoin this FREE monthly writing workshop for adults\, which provides a safe space for writers of all stages and genres to generate stories inspired by prompts running the gamut from phrases\, poems\, photography\, guest authors and their prompts\, or a piece of artwork. We will read our stories to one another and share only positive feedback. \nThese workshops are inspired by the Amherst Writers & Artists Method\, which believes that everyone is a writer. \nThis workshop is held at the Ames Public Library from 10 to 12 PM upstairs in the PEO Room. \nPresented by the Iowa Center for the Book and Ames Public Library in partnership with the Ames Writers Collective.
