What is your creative process? How do you gather ideas and
see them through to your final piece of writing or artistic venture? Speaker Jack Crocker will lead us through this process as we explore what works best for us in our creative journey. Whatever genre you write in, discovering the steps that work best for you is essential to completing the story that you are ready to share.

Join us Saturday, March 18 at 12:30pm via Zoom for our speaker poet Jack Crocker.
