Do you have a story to tell?
Is it something you've wanted to write down for a long time? An event in your own life, the distant past or yesterday, that you want to dive deeper into, write about, and even share as a told story? Here is a chance to do that!

Join Peter Gould for a celebration of storytelling March 2nd at the Fellowship Hall GUCC. (Snow date will be March 23)

At 2pm, Vermont writer Peter Gould will share with us how he takes his personal experiences and makes them into stories that are fun to write and great fun to share-even when the subject matter may be difficult. Participants will be inspired to dig deep, to tell their own stories from their time on the farm, in the sugar house, back in school, on a tough job of work, in love or out of love, in war or peace, or spending a beautiful day outside.

We will close the day writing with a performance, inviting friends and neighbors to sit and listen to our stories. Any who may be inspired are invited to share their own stories, too.

Peter says, "Just come, and put yourself in the place where a great idea can find you. Then, let's share in the unmatchable fun of hearing each other's stories!"

You can do this workshop twice! Or three times! Sean Prentiss in his poetry writing workshop on April 6, and then, Sean and Peter working together, on April 20.
