The ECU Writing Centre presents Pandemic Stories Weekly Writing Group:
Join this weekly Zoom drop-in space to explore your pandemic stories through writing. Each Tuesday’s lunch hour session from
11:30 AM – 12:30 PM will centre around a theme:
Joy – Jan 25
Nourishment – Feb 1
Connection – Feb 15
Growth – Mar 1
Humor – Mar 8
Comfort – Mar 15
Coping – Mar 22
Grief – Mar 29
No previous writing experience is needed to join this space, just a desire to connect and reflect. Feel free to stay for an additional half hour until 1 PM.
Register on Zoom for access to the writing group, but drop into each session as you are able.
Each session will start with a collaborative writing ice breaker. Then we will have time to work on our own writing separately. At the end of each session there will be an option to go around and share what we are each working on, and share resources as needed. Come with an idea or respond to a prompt. The group will meet weekly throughout the semester – you can drop into a single session and do not need to sign up for the whole series.
We are also publishing a zine. You may choose to submit works that you started and/or finished during the sessions. You can choose to be named, or remain anonymous in the printed zine. We will focus on writing in the space, but you can submit other kinds of printable media as well – drawings, photographs, etc.
This series is hosted and curated by Sunny Nestler.
