SUNDAY MORNING WRITING SESSIONS at Kaatsbaan Cultural Park with Molly Prentiss
A space for generative writing in community
Writing is, by necessity, a solitary act. But sometimes community can help hold us accountable to the work, inspire us to carve out the time and space to dive deep, and help us ignite our creative spark. Sunday Morning Writing Sessions are 2-hour working meet-ups hosted by novelist Molly Prentiss, during which we will write alongside each other in the beautiful studios at Kaatsbaan Cultural Park in Tivoli, NY. We'll begin each class with a writing prompt and short discussion on creative process, and then we'll work — giving ourselves the gift of uninterrupted time for thinking and creating. Writers will have the opportunity to share their work at the end of each session, if they wish. Writers (and non-writers) of all levels are welcome!
When: Sunday mornings in February, 10am–12pm (February 6, 13, and 27); Sunday mornings in March, 10am-12pm (March 6, 13, 20, 27); Sunday, April 3, 10am-12pm
Bring: Laptop or notebook, coffee or snack, your beautiful brain
Covid Precautions: Proof of vaccination and masks required, socially distanced work environment
Cost: $35/session

“In one sentence, Ms. Prentiss captures a sense of intoxication and possibility that six seasons of voice-overs from Sarah Jessica Parker never could.” (The New York Times)
“An intoxicating Manhattan fairy tale… As affecting as it is absorbing. A thrilling debut.” (Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)
