Program Description
Event Details
Prescott Valley Public Library will be offering Writer’s Cauldron: A Generative Writing Workshop on May 10th, 2025. Join us for a creative and inspiring workshop where we’ll explore the themes and questions that haunt us as writers. As writers, we have themes and questions that we return to over and over again in our work. Sometimes this can feel limiting, but what if our hauntings contained our strongest stories? Let’s look at what we can learn from the things that haunt us and populate our unique writer’s cauldron. What if what we feel is common or repetitive is really the foundation of everything we have to say? Come prepared to explore the ingredients of your own writer’s cauldron through generative exercises and conversation.
Laraine Herring, Prescott Valley’s Writer-in-Residence, has an MFA in Creative Writing and an MA in Counseling Psychology. She is a tenured professor of psychology and creative writing at Yavapai College and has been teaching since 1993. She has conducted webinars for Corporeal Writing, Creative Nonfiction Magazine, Phoenix Author’s Group and more, and has earned grants through the Arizona Artists Roster. Her work has won the Barbara Deming Award for Women in Fiction and her memoir, A Constellation of Ghosts made a number of top ten lists in 2021.
