Workshop for writers at the Customs House Museum and Cultural Center
January 14, 2017
Clarksville, TN – Regional writers will be given the opportunity to participate in a workshop with noted poet Stellasue Lee on Saturday, January 28th. Dr. Lee will be leading a class entitled “Saying the Unsayable”.
“Journal Writing/ transformation line is the key to a door of the subconscious. It is how one discovers what they are thinking/feeling. Explaining the unexplainable is something of a magic act; showing up to a blank page with an unfettered mind takes some doing,” said Dr. Lee.
