  Come join other writers! The lonely solitary writer is a myth. Writing needs to be shared and writing is richer when done in community.  In this Symposium, we will share our writings. Donnaleen will facilitate the sharing of prose in several genres such as memoir, essays, and other forms of writing, and provide some ideas on methodology whilst giving you an opportunity to discuss your process.  Feedback will be given by Donnaleen and participants, giving you, and your writing an opportunity to breathe and grow.
