In this reading and generative workshop, fellow Osher member Beverly Cartwright will share selections from her debut collection, Intact; a book that explores themes of loss and grief, memory and domestic history, but also reflects on the resilience of human nature and the grace we find in continuing to move forward. Following the reading there will be time for a Q&A session and general discussion on the themes put forward. Participants will be given several prompts with the objective to write your own poem using a narrative style, a poem of address, or a list poem, as the spirit takes you. This session is open to all writers at any level, so bring your favorite writing tools and let's create together.
