August Writing Group

Writing Down and Dirty at The Sunrise Project

"It is only when we are aware of the earth and of the earth as poetry that we truly live." -  Henry Beston

In this group, you will get down and dirty with your writing! We will muck around in the mud of the metaphor. We will dig deep into your connections with the earth. Carol Williams noted, "Most of all one discovers that the soil does not stay the same, but, like anything alive, is always changing and telling its own story.   Soil is the substance of transformation." During this writing group, you can write your changing, transformational stories!

You do NOT need to consider yourself a writer to join in this experience.

We will meet from 6-8 pm on Thursday, August 22nd. Register through the Sunrise Project events page at https://www.sunriseprojectks.org/events.  Space is limited to 8 participants. Use the East door facing Learnard to enter. The North door is hard for me to unlock and lock.

Please donate food for the pantry, toilet paper, or $$.

About Iris Craver, the facilitator: I lead expressive writing groups in a variety of settings ranging from the county jail to the city library. I completed national certification as a journaling and poetry therapist because I am hooked on the idea that the more we engage in the process of creative writing, the more creative we become in all aspects of our lives. I live just off the banks of the Kaw and am grateful for all of the surprises that life has given me!
