Summer brain rot is real (and sometimes welcome), but we can still hang and see what our pens can do. Join our session or an open-hearted session in a cool spot with cool people. We’ll journal, share, ideate, dream, scribble, and inspire one another to write more. Most of the discussion will center around creative non-fiction writing but students are welcome to bring a flair for fiction.
