“Wordsmith Workshop”
Intro:
No matter your experience or style, the Wordsmith Workshop welcomes you to our bi-monthly gathering where we discuss and practice our craft. Each meeting will focus on a specific topic that poets and authors alike can explore to expand their understanding of the medium and the breadth of their own skills. Iron sharpens iron, as one writer sharpens another. On the first and third Saturdays of each month, from noon to 2pm, the Ramsdell Theater will be host to writers like you. We hope to see you there!
