Twyla will read from her own writing with discussion, and/or use readings along with guided writing exercises to conduct an interactive and user-friendly workshop.

Description

Playing Around with Words: Creative Writing on the Plains is a flexible program of readings/discussion for a wide variety of audiences, a writing workshop for beginning and seasoned writers, or a combination of both. Hansen will read selections of her and others’ writing to show how the Great Plains has shaped their poems and stories of place and connections with the natural world. The workshop includes a combination of readings and guided writing exercises for participants to generate their own poems or short prose. The programs are audience/ participant-focused, interactive, and will allow time for discussion. For middle school through adult.
