Introducing Monthly Generative Writing Zoom: Ekphrasis Anonymous!

By popular demand, we begin 2026 with a new monthly series of generative writing sessions on zoom! 

Welcome to Ekphrasis Anonymous!

Each session will include a curated selection of diverse artworks and prompt ideas for brainstorming and generating poetry or fiction. We will look at and discuss each artwork briefly, then spend time writing. We will have a few minutes to talk about our process and the option for a couple of people to share their drafts after each exercise. The curated artworks will be a grab-bag each time, from different artists, eras, styles, and cultures, chosen to inspire your writing and challenge you to new directions.

​The first session starts this Thursday. Join us!
