Dear Friends of Owens River Girl & Pupfish Press,

Next week is Thanksgiving and though you’re probably focused on being with and giving to others, don’t forget to schedule some time for your own creative pursuits. In fact, here are four offerings as the holidays approach. Sign up early to reserve your spot!

Workshops to Finish Your Year Strong

"I have come to rely on this gathering to inspire, to affirm, to find refuge and to identify as New Nature Writers. Together, we are a force of nature. Through a combination of weekly drop-ins and more structured coursework, I have discovered my voice, my intentions and my cohort. As a result, I am writing creatively and prolifically." - Rita S.

Take time for your writing practice with three upcoming virtual workshops and ongoing (and free!) Pop-In Writing Hours with New Nature Writers:

The Pop-ins events are a free, virtual writing space for writers writing and exploring within the Nature Writing genre. To sign up, please send Laurie Scheer an email at laurie@newnaturewriters.com.

We welcome beginners as well as established writers in fiction and nonfiction, memoirists, short fiction, screenplay, stage play, poetry and writers who want to explore some or all of the above genres. Nature Writing is diverse and inclusive. We know that sometimes a writer’s life is solitary. You are not alone. Join our merry band of creatives this holiday season!

I am so grateful for all of you who support me, Pupfish Press, our planet and the power of words and stories to make change.

Kristine

The mission of Pupfish Press is to create a community of people from every generation who want to use the power of the word to make the planet a better place for us all.
