Sandwich Public Library Writing Workshop Series

Calling all aspiring and accomplished writers! Join us for our very special Writer Workshops featuring local authors!

We've gathered 7 authors to facilitate more than 15 writing workshops over an 8 week period thanks to a generous gift donation from the Boucher Family Charitable Gift Fund. The workshops will be held during February and March, 2025.

To kick off this series, we welcome local author Kathy Aspden of the Cape Cod Writers Center. 

We have coordinated a wide variety of writing workshops covering different writing genres including: plays/screenwriting, historical fiction, memoir, domestic thriller, children's books, intuitive writing, and poetry, just to name a few. Please see the Library Event Calendar for a full list of the writing workshops being offered. Sign up for a few workshops, or ALL. We hope to see you there!

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP: Aspden will guide participants in using writing prompts and meditative methods to ta into the stories in the recesses of your mind. This is a great workshop for anyone looking to push their creativity to another level.
