Calling all writers 18 years and up! The Minden Library welcomes you to join our Writing Group the first Tuesday of every month from 4:30 - 5:30 p.m.
In this writing group, we will explore different styles of writing and develop our own voices through writing exercises, discussions, and workshops. Supplemental reading will be provided but is not required. Potential topics for discussion include, but are not limited to: world-building, plot twists, point of view, character voice, dialogue, suspense, mystery, mood, narrative structure, imagery, metaphor, genre-bending, creativity, writing practices, revision, publishing, literary magazine submissions, the writer’s life, and anything else that may arise.
The emphasis is on process more than product.
Each meeting will feature approximately 30 minutes of discussion, followed by an optional workshop where you can give and receive feedback on short pieces of writing. If you would rather not share your writing, that’s ok! Join others in free writing, where you can work on your own projects in the company of other authors.
This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Douglas County Public Library.
