Learn how to frame the stories of your life in a way that others will want to read. Drop by any session to start. All are welcome.

  Join local writer Jill Robinson for a couple of months; she will make you work! Serious participants are invited to keep cranking those pages out, to share with other writers and the instructor.

She has also written for "The New York Times", "Vanity Fair", and "People". Ms. Robinson just returned from Great Britain, where she has been teaching writing for some years.
