SUMMARY:The Annual "Write Here\, Write Now" December Reading
DESCRIPTION:The last few years have not been kind—many of us feel there is too much darkness in the world. Our poetry and prose cannot be as boisterous a celebration of the upcoming holidays as in previous seasons. \nFor the 2022 edition of their annual December reading\, Write Here\, Write Now members present more pensive and nostalgic pieces—but that does not mean the mood will include no leavening. There is joy and hope to be found even in the heart of darkness. \nThe last poem of the day is a WHWN standard that captures the whimsy of a child’s vision of the festive season. Everyone is most welcome! \nWrite Here\, Write Now is supported by Bishop’s University Lifelong Learning Academy.\nBishop’s University is located on the Traditional and Unceded Territory of the Abenaki People.
