G SESSIONS — 12:30–1:45 P.M.
G.45 Write Across America with the National Writing Project
G ROOM: B-130–132 (GCCC, MAIN LEVEL)
Good teachers of writing should be writers, but it’s difficult to find time to keep up our own writing practices. This session, based on the National Writing Project’s Write Across America Virtual Writing Marathon, provides an opportunity for participants to be inspired by places around the country, write in the company of other writers, and share their writing in small groups, free of critique.
