Even before\nI decide which to take\,\nwhich to twist from the wet rocks\,\nwhich to devour\,\nthey\, who have no eyes to see with\,\nsee me\, like a shadow\,\nbending forward. Together\nthey make a sound\,\nnot loud\,\nnot unmusical\, as they lean\ninto the rock\, away\nfrom my grasping fingers. \n  \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/poem-du-jour-with-richard-wyndham/ LOCATION:GWC\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\, United States CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/f47dw0.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150907T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150907T210000 DTSTAMP:20260428T015529 CREATED:20150122T003456Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150122T003456Z UID:4995-1441654200-1441659600@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Open Mic DESCRIPTION:  \n \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/open-mic-7-2015-09-07/ LOCATION:GWC\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\, United States CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/openmicgeneral.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150905T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150905T170000 DTSTAMP:20260428T015529 CREATED:20150904T225242Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150904T231855Z UID:5827-1441440000-1441472400@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Saving the World One Word at a Time.

This book offers instruction\, inspiration and prompts for externalizing your inner apocalypse. Using creative writing\, readers are encouraged to make meaning of their experiences by discovering\, emphasizing and illuminating changed perspectives. Every character and every story we write is autobiographical. Our writing can transform us by offering opportunities to explore\, examine\, and understand outcomes from our lives\, and to imagine alternatives. We can evoke a sense of justice and peace\, not by changing outcomes (usually it’s too late for that)\, but by changing perspective. Apocalyptic stories can inspire change\, and even hope. \nEbook available on Amazon\, paperback available soon. \n  \n  \n  \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/love-and-apocalypse-externalize-your-inner-apocalypse-reading-and-writers-workshop/ LOCATION:GWC\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\, United States CATEGORIES:Classes,Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Screen-Shot-2015-07-15-at-6.44.21-AM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150807T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150807T213000 DTSTAMP:20260428T015529 CREATED:20150611T175048Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150611T175048Z UID:5505-1438975800-1438983000@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Fish Tales: Storytellers Choice - Anything Goes DESCRIPTION:No theme for this one.  You decide. \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/fish-tales-waves/ LOCATION:Cultural Center at Rocky Neck\, 6 Wonson Street\, Gloucester\, United States CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Screen-Shot-2014-09-11-at-10.12.34-AM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150805T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150805T213000 DTSTAMP:20260428T015529 CREATED:20150610T190320Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150610T190320Z UID:5513-1438803000-1438810200@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Ron Silliman: A Reading & Conversation on Post-Anthropocene Poetics DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/ron-silliman-a-reading-conversation-on-post-anthropocene-poetics/ CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Silliman-98-c-Jeff-Hurwitz-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150803T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150803T210000 DTSTAMP:20260428T015529 CREATED:20150122T003456Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150122T003456Z UID:4994-1438630200-1438635600@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Open Mic DESCRIPTION: Special Venue!\nThis month’s Open Mic\nwill be held at the\nEastern Point Lit House\nat 261 Main Street.\n \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/open-mic-7-2015-08-03/ LOCATION:Eastern Point Lit House\, 261 Main Street\, Gloucester\, 01930 CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/openmicgeneral.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150801T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150807T170000 DTSTAMP:20260428T015529 CREATED:20150123T183830Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150123T183830Z UID:5014-1438416000-1438966800@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Writer in Residence DESCRIPTION:Ron Silliman \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/writer-residence-10/ LOCATION:GWC\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\, United States CATEGORIES:Writer in Residence END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20150730T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20150730T213000 DTSTAMP:20260428T015529 CREATED:20150529T130503Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150529T130503Z UID:5458-1438282800-1438291800@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:10-Minute Playwriting DESCRIPTION:  \nInstructor: M.
