About this Event

The personal, nature writing essay is the place where the living world and our experience of it meets. Each of us has a unique vocabulary of place that comes from how we experience the landscape around us. In this creative writing workshop, we’ll consider how to put words and sentences to that vocabulary and structure it into a narrative essay. Using our senses, a collection of small wonders from the natural world, and our experiences of each season, we’ll practice weaving nature writing and memoir.
