The Writing Lincoln Initiative is inviting you to our Fall Writing Marathon on Saturday, October 12th from 12- 4 PM in Pioneers Park. Following in the tradition of our Nebraska Writing Project collaborators, this writing marathon invites you to spend an afternoon exploring nature while writing about your experience or anything that is important to you.
We ask that all attendees first meet at the Pioneers Park Nature Center (3201 South Coddington, Lincoln, NE 68522) at noon to begin the marathon.
After a brief overview of what writing marathons entail, attendees will break into small groups that will explore the park together, pause to write, and share that writing with each other. One of those groups will function as an accessibility group, which will stick to sidewalks, flat planes, and picnic tables where we can sit and write. There is also an indoor greenhouse where we can sit and write!
We hope this event gives attendees a chance to experience the world as writers, space to generate new material, and an opportunity to share their writing with others within a supportive community. This event is free and open to the public, so invite friends and family members!
