The Joslyn Center's Writing Group Publishes Collection Of Poetry

Press release from The Joslyn Center:

Oct. 21, 2020

The Joslyn Center is thrilled to announce the publication of its creative and memoir writing group’s third anthology. The new book, LifeScripts: A Collection of Prose and Poetry, features original fiction, nonfiction (memories and essays) and poetry inspired by the authors’ imagination and memory.

The writing group is comprised of Joslyn Center members of varying ages and diverse backgrounds. Some have experience writing while others have taken it up as a hobby in retirement. Participants in the close-knit group have been meeting regularly – some for over 15 years – to share their stories, offer constructive criticism, and encourage each other.

“We congratulate the writing group on this tremendous achievement,” said Joslyn Center Executive Director Jack Newby. “They have come together in the midst of a pandemic to collaborate and support one another in a way that only a shared history and a common interest can provide.”

LifeScripts is available from Amazon for $19.95. SandScripts, the group’s previous anthology published in 2012, is also available from Amazon.
