Creative Writing Club Meeting
Creative Writing Club is a place where any and everyone is welcome!
We write, share and collaborate on stories and poems. We share them as well (if you choose too).
Creative Writing Club also does a slue of events, every now and then. We invite poets and authors to come speak about their process, have open mics where you can share your works and we also participate in NaNoWriMo ( National Novel Writing Month) and Poetry Month!
In the Spring, the Creative Writing Club is involved with the Fountain Spray Art and Literary Magazine. This magazine is published every spring semester and is full of creative works from students, including works of art, photos, writing piece, digital art and choreographed dances which are in the online version.
As mentioned before this club is for any and everyone, so I hope you stop by even if it's just to say hi.

Fall into Fiction: Plotting and Prepping
SMJC Library - Georgian Court University 900 Lakewood Ave, Lakewood, NJ, United StatesJoin us on Wednesday, October 30th @ 3:30 PM in the SMJC Library for a NaNoWriMo prep session. We are going to work on some strategies for outlining (the beats!), plotting (save the cat!), and developing full characters (arcs, arrows, and rainbows!)
Bring the projects you are working on, the projects you wish you were working on, and/or your fabulous self so that we can enjoy an afternoon of fiction and fun. There will be a bit of a Halloween theme with some cemetery plots (hehe plotting) and some black cats (haha nine lives).

Summer Writing Retreat
FeaturedMansion - Georgian Court University 900 Lakewood Avenue, Lakewood, NJ, United StatesThe Sister Maria Cordis Richey Center for the Humanities and Creative Arts and the Department of English & IDS at Georgian Court University invite you to a one day summer writing retreat on Tuesday, June 24th from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM in the Mansion. We are leaning into gilded age glamour and luddite sensibilities to turn off our devices, take in our surroundings, tune into our projects, and attune with our fellow writers. This retreat blends craft talk and goal setting with contemplative practices and creative arts to support authors on and off the page.
The retreat is FREE for Georgian Court students, staff, faculty, and alum. GCU folks can also bring a friend! Come ready to incubate a new project, build momentum for a work in progress, or polish and package a current manuscript: where ever you are, we are here--come, let's write! Registration is limited to the first 20 participants. RSVP by June 20th.
