Writing Prompts with Heidi and Valerie
To register, we ask that you make a small donation of $5 to nonprofit Louisa Arts Center which has kindly offered us space for our programs. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you!
Join us! The September 3 workshop will
be led by Heidi Shalloway, leader of “Writers Unite” at the James
Madison Regional Library in Louisa, and Valerie Forde-Galvin, leader of the Montpelier Writers Group at the Montpelier Branch Library. They bring their unique brand of writers’ prompts to our group. Expect to be challenged, but also expect lots of zany fun! Writers 18+ from all backgrounds, regardless of experience, are welcome!
Register now!
Each month, you will also have the chance to connect with local and visiting writers, enjoy time for self-expression, work on skills and techniques and share. Come to write, come to learn, or just come to listen. Bring a friend and let’s inspire one another! For more information, email [email protected]
Call for Submissions!
Who We Are
Founded by Louisa County, Virginia, author and poet Katherine Mercurio Gotthardt, Write In Louisa (WIL) is a writers group designed for writers ages 18+ with any level of experience, from any background. From published authors to those simply interested in exploring different forms of self-expression, all are encouraged to join our open, friendly group to read, and if desired, receive helpful feedback.
We meet the first Wednesday of the month (unless otherwise specified) in the Purcell Gallery at Louisa Arts Center. Donation is $5 + associated fees.
All donations support Louisa Arts Center, a nonprofit providing opportunities for the community to explore and enjoy the arts.
