Creative Non-fictioning – Hey, It Happens!

6:00pm-7:30pm, 1803 N. 7th St.

When faced with the blank page, where do you go? Is your tendency to fall back on “that time when”…or, “do you more...0 remember…”? Life is stranger than fiction, and if you want to work out some of your lived experiences in writing, then this session is for you! We’ll do a number of exercises to help strengthen the pen and generate ideas, as well as share and talk writing! Join the Western Colorado Writers’ Forum on May 5, 2026, from 6-7:30 p.m. at The Art Center in Grand Junction for this fun, generative session! Speaker Bio Brooke A. Carlson has been falling through books, writing here and there, and teaching all over the place for ages. Slipping through higher ed for the last couple of decades has meant publications on pedagogy in academic spaces, and pushing to expand scholarly writing into the public. Along the way, poetry happens.
