SUMMARY:Spring Writers Group 1
DESCRIPTION:A weekly writers’ group focused on creating community by mutually reading and discussing each other’s work. Each session will begin with a free write. This is very loose and allows for some flexibility for people to arrive after the start. After this\, we will jump into the critique\, which will be split into two sections. In Section One\, the writer cannot speak and will listen to the initial reactions from everyone else in the group for 30 minutes. In Section Two\, the author will have the opportunity to respond to the critique and ask any questions they would like clarification on. Both sections are very conversational! Fiction or creative nonfiction only (1500-3000 words). Hosted by Maxx Zenisek and Carly Travis.  \n\n\n\nThis workshop session is currently FULL. Next sign up opens in June.

SUMMARY:Midwest Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:Do you love being a Midwesterner? Do you want to read difficult books and talk about them with other smart people? Join the pub‘s new biweekly Midwest Reading Group! \n\n\n\nWe’ll be reading Jon Lauck’s 2022 book The Good Country: A History of the American Midwest 1800-1900. Lauck charts the development of democratic ideals in the region from the organization of Ohio through just before WWI\, aiming to tell a broad history of the regular working people who made up the region during that century. Lauck is the leader of the new revival of Midwestern Studies\, and we’ll take to task the kind of new regional history he proposes. For Meeting 1\, please read the Introduction\, pages 1-19. Hosted by Lillian Lippold.Email midwestreadinggroup@gmail.com if you need help getting the reading (scanned pages). \n\n\n\nReading Schedule: \n\n\n\nSession 1 – April 11: Pages 1-19.
