Do you love to write? Need some friendly support and feedback? Join us in this collaborative, creative writing group every Monday at 10:15am!
A beloved LHT Library patron, Elaine Shaub, loved to write. She would come to the library to free her mind and write her stream of consciousness. Sadly, Elaine passed away in April of 2024 and, in her memory, the LHT Library invites community residents to be part of the newly re-formed Elaine’s Peacock Writers Group. Inspiration, guidance, support and gentle critiques will be offered at the monthly meetings. Experience is not necessary, only the desire to put pen to paper and write. Tools required: pen and paper, tablet or laptop — whatever helps the writing process. All are welcome — what is shared in the group, stays in the group!
Each meeting, a “Writing Prompt” will be provided to assist in the creative writing process and help direct the group discussions. In addition, every meeting will begin with a brief discussion on writing craft, creativity, writing preparation and time management.
This is a writing forum where everyone will be asked to write-out or simply jot-down their ideas and read them to the group. We welcome feedback and the writing trainer will provide light, constructive criticism. Please note that this is an adult forum, so adult language is tolerated within the context of the writing pieces.
Newcomers are always welcome!
Register here to be added to the mailing list and receive an email reminder with the prompt for the next class.
Made possible by funds from Morris Arts, a partner of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts.
