WIND~WORD CREATIVE WRITING SAIL

When was the last time you stopped & let the words tumble out?

In this Floating Salon, we will come together in the dynamic & inspired waters of Lake Champlain to venture out on a voyage of self-discovery. Using the proven Gateless approach to creative writing, participants will be encouraged to write and, if inclined, to share their work.

Local writer and U.S. Sailing Certified Keelboat Instructor Kelly Hedglin Bowen will lead this Gateless Floating Salon. Kelly is a satirical writer turned reluctant memoirist. Kelly has no natural pause and is therefore comma challenged. While earning an M.F.A. from Goddard College, she completed a memoir Mystic Trinities. When not reading and writing, she follows the seasons ~ snowboarding, gardening, and sailing. Her essays have been shortlisted for the 49th Annie Dillard Award for Creative Nonfiction, the Arts and Letters Prize in Creative Nonfiction, the New South Prize. Latest work can be found in Creative Nonfiction Magazine and online at The Huffington Post.
