wRite with Mary Sojourner, Summer 2011
I offer a six-week writing circle for no more than 9 writers. We’ll begin Wednesday, June 15 and continue through July 20, from 6-8 at 505 W. Philomena Dr. in Flagstaff. If you’ve worked with me before, you know what emerges from our writing, reading and listening. I believe in the magic that lies in timed writings and the intuitions of the circle. wRite works for new writers, blocked writers, writers who want to move from more personal writing to poetry, fiction and non-fiction and writers who want to polish existing work. Fee: $160. $80. non-refundable depost. Send to Mary Sojourner, 144 NW Adams Pl., Apt. B, Bend, Or. 97701. I’ll be back in Flagstaff to live on June 1. Will have new address then. Feel free to call with questions: 541-350-1322.
