Adult Writers Club
Whether you're an aspiring novelist, a poet at heart, or just someone who loves to explore the written word, this is the place to bring your stories to life! Our club is a welcoming community where you'll get to sharpen your skills, be inspired, build confidence, and make connections. During each club meeting, we will participate in troubleshooting discussions, enjoy some writing time, and end the session with friendly feedback for those who want it. This club is held twice a month at the Denham Springs-Walker Branch. To find out how to join, contact Lee Cline at lcline@mylpl.info.
