New women’s veteran writing workshop wants you

Calling all female military veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard and reservists: A new Women Veterans’ Writing Group is now in session.

“Everyone has a story to tell. If you’d like to learn how to tell yours, join us,” founder and leader Sonya Padgett writes in her event flyer. No writing experience is required, only a “desire to write a story, essay or poem on any topic.” You don’t even have to bring pen or paper; all supplies will be provided.

The free workshops are the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at 6 p.m. at UNLV’s Black Mountain Institute. For more information, email [email protected].
