Saturday 08/14 10am-12noon  (held every second Saturday) Prompt Writing Class with Nancy Peacock Prompt Writing: Serious writing begins with playful writing. Please join this unique ongoing group of supportive adult writers and play your way into the possibilities of the written word. Based on the work of Natalie Goldberg (WRITING DOWN THE BONES, WILD MIND) we set a timer for fifteen minutes and write using prompts as our launch pads. This class is free and open to the public. Nancy Peacock’s first book LIFE WITHOUT WATER was published and chosen as a New York Times Notable Book. It was followed a few years later by another novel HOME ACROSS THE ROAD and most recently by a work of nonfiction, A BROOM OF ONE’S OWN: WORDS ON WRITING, HOUSECLEANING, AND LIFE.  Nancy lives in Chatham County and runs writing workshops in her studio and this Prompt Writing class every second Saturday at Flyleaf Books.
Start: 6:00 pm
