Writers
Group Launch in Early 2008
Someone
you know, perhaps yourself, has an unmet
promise of becoming a great, prolific
writer.
It lives in you like a dream, at times
cinematic and lucid, at times faint like
the din of a faraway train.
Do you love the cadence, the voluptuousness,
the defiance and spit of words? Will you
join us in creating a writers’ group?
It’ll exist solely for the purpose
of advancing the practice and poetics
of writing. It’ll demand a good
amount of tenacity, vision, and above
all, devotion toward becoming a serious
writer.
We’ll
write. We’ll meet weekly. We’ll
give honest, constructive feedback on
each other’s works. |
It’ll
be one of the best, most challenging things
we’ve done for ourselves. At the
end, we’ll have bred and fed that
rarest of creatures--a plane of consistency,
toward a practice we really love and care
about.
When
Artnation, a grassroots nonprofit dedicated
to the creative act, came to be, it was
with the hope of generating momentum for
aspiring, even tentative artists to realize
their potential. With such an immensity
to life, and so little time, there’s
no time better than now to catalyze vision
into living, breathing reality.
To apply, send a short writing sample
to info@artnation.org.
We’ll call a meeting as soon as
we have a core of interested folks. |
