Creative Writing Group for Adults at Effingham Public Library

Storycrafters, a creative writing group for adults, will meet Saturday, Jan. 15 from 10 a.m. to noon in the Suzette Brumleve Memorial Effingham Public Library’s Luttrell Room.

Facilitated by Matt Hopkins, Programming Coordinator, “Storycrafters is a group focused on gathering adult creative writers together (those 18 or older) so that we can support one another toward writing the great stories we all want to tell. “

Group size is intentionally kept small with just 7 participants so registration is required for this free event. 

Storycrafters is designed to tackle the challenges of: organizing ideas, structuring plot, developing believable characters, creating convincing dialogue, becoming a descriptive writer, and in general improving skills as a creative writer.

Writers of all genres of fiction are welcome, including those who are working on poetry, memoirs, and journaling.
