with Nessa McCasey, PTP, CPT, Mentor*

Join us for a bi-weekly writing course over 3 months with a professional poetry therapist, Nessa McCasey (who is also a Unitarian Universalist and member of CLF). We will be following the CLF themes each month for our writing, in order to allow us to dig into each topic more deeply. Nessa gently coaxes our writing selves to reveal the wisdom we each harbor within. Because she builds community through positive feedback of each person’s writing, the group feels comfortable sharing meaningful and often insightful comments with each other. We do not analyze writings as one might do in a college course. Instead, we explore, ponder, find meaning for ourselves, play with words, and spiritually wander through wonder. Any level of writer is welcome to join this creative exploration that is designed to nurtures the soul. Poetic prompts and creative starters will be offered to help face the blank page each session and writers are able to veer in their own direction as desired.

There are two sections of this class. The fall section will meet the second and fourth week of the month beginning September 14 and ending November 23. The Spring session will begin in late February and end in early May.

The Fall section will meet on Wednesdays at 1 pm Eastern. If you are interested in attending an evening session of Whispering Winds, please contact Sarah Prickett at skprickett@clfuu.org. If there is enough interest, we will offer an evening class this spring. At this time, we are only registering for the fall session. Those who wish to register for both sessions will receive a coupon code for a reduced rate during the spring session registration.
