Writers Talking with Writers
Writing in Company - A Networking and Writing Opportunity
“If you want to change the world, pick up your pen and write.”Ãยข Martin Luther
What compels us, pulls magnet-like on the filaments of our creativity towards clinical narrative writing?
That urge to write, is an emotionally rich and risky kind of sky diving is often best held with the support and encouragement that can be found in writing groups.
Join us as we explore ways to network and find company to begin a new paper, revisit an old project, or allow yourself to be carried on the winds where association deposits you.
There will be time to identify potential peer groups or writing partners as well as a brief chance to write based on a prompt or your own urgings.
“Write what should not be forgotten.” —Isabel Allende
Upcoming Events:
Writing in Company - Four times per year, Jan Chess will offer free small-group two-hour clinical writing workshops for IAPSP members. Participants will discuss a writing prompt then spend time writing and sharing their pieces. Each group will be limited to 10 members.
