Writers Workshop with Clive Matson at MAC

Description

Hi Writers, This drop-in workshop, featuring renowned teacher Clive Matson (matsonpoet.com) is 10 am to 5 pm Sunday, October 16, at the Middletown Arts Center. It is the third of ten monthly meetings. We'll use the usual Crazy Child format and generate much interesting material, freely and wildly. At this and further sessions we'll bring in copies of our work and receive constructive, supportive feedback, designed especially to get us rolling on projects that express the deepest feelings of our primitive hearts.
