EXQUISITE COLLABORATION PROMPT
I took a couple of months off from the Exquisite Collaboration Project, but it's time for another prompt for July. As always, to participate, all you have to do is respond to a prompt and the poem will create itself.

* If you've never participated, you can get more information and see past poems here.
* If you'd like to jump right into this month's prompt, you can find it here.

VIRTUAL WRITING WORKSHOP: TELL YOURSELF A NEW STORY
Thursday, July 8, 2021
7:00 PM - 8:30 PM ET/US
Fairport Public Library via Zoom

“I can't write a book.”
“No one cares what I have to say.”
“I'll never have another good idea.”
“I'm not really a writer.”
These are just some of the stories we tell ourselves that create roadblocks along our creative path. But imagine the possibilities if you could tell yourself a different story! In this session, we'll use reflective writing prompts and fun exercises rooted in the improv principle of “Yes And” to silence the inner critic and turn those self-limiting statements upside down. It's time to write a new story about your creative journey - and yourself!

IMPROV CLASSES
If you're interested in exploring the basics of improv, I can offer small class size, high support, an encouraging environment, and reasonable fees. Classes are formed based on interest and availability, so contact me via the contact page of my website or email me at [email protected] and put "Improv Classes" in the subject line, and we can chat more. I should note that this is not a performance opportunity; just a chance to play, make mistakes in a safe space, and explore the foundations of improvisational theater.
