More to come from Writing the Wild Labs
Writing the Wild Labs are offered throughout each winter and spring. These are small group, short term, intensive workshops around a particular theme or topic. Writing the Wild cohort members receive discounted registration for all labs.
One lab participant says:
"Who knew that after lockdown I would want to get back on Zoom, but somehow Krissy Kludt has created this magical space where I discovered other writers like me, who want to deeply explore the idea of place and our connection with it (and each other)…. Just a few hours in the Cloud and then it’s back down to Earth, where I go outside and try to understand (and describe) all the beings on this planet we call home."
