In the spirit of Havurah’s theme this year, David Kertzner is organizing a new Havurah adult amateur writers workshop for anyone who wants to go Panim el Panim, or Face to Face, with themselves as exploring writers and with the community in a culminating Friday Oneg with writers sharing their work in public reading. Joining the group does not mean you must read publicly, though – but it has been fun, transformative and moving in the past! The goal is to create a supportive, reflective environment for people who want to write and share in a context that they might not have experienced before.

Group size is limited to 8 participants. The focus of the writing group is memoir writing in the broadest sense of the word. We will meet together for 8 sessions on Thursday evenings from 7-9 pm, beginning on March 7. We will skip the week of 4/23 for Passover.  

This is not for people who are in the middle of a writing project like a book and are seeking feedback on their big work.  

Please call David at 503-231-2906 for more information or if you have questions.

Register below. If the form tells you more than eight people have registered, then contact David (dkertzner@proactive-english.com) to be put on a waiting list.
