Witches in the Woods Writing Workshop

With Maya Jewell Zeller and Sharma Shields

A short, fun, outdoorsy workshop at Riverside State Park. Come be inspired by writing prompts about witches and wilderness.

Local writers Sharma Shields (Spokane Public Library's Writing Education Specialist) and Maya Jewell Zeller (award-winning writer and author most recently of the memoir Raised by Ferns) will offer writing examples and prompts that involve witches and/or outdoorsy themes. Expect at least two writing prompts, time to write, discussion, and optional sharing aloud. Open to all genders, style of writing, level of writing (newbies and experienced writers alike), and genre interests.

We'll meet at the Bowl & Pitcher Kitchen Shelter/day-use area of beautiful Riverside State Park.
