Join us as we explore how to write fiction. This facilitated learning circle is offered with the help of Peer 2 Peer University and A. Jordan Draves' learntowritefiction.net. This series of video tutorials and open discussion is hosted by the Culture & AV Division Librarians.
Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU) is a grassroots network of individuals who seek to create an equitable, empowering, and liberating alternative to mainstream higher education. It works toward this vision by creating and sustaining learning communities in public spaces around the world.
Learning circles are free, regularly scheduled study groups for people who want to learn together and in-person.
As librarians, we bring people and neighborhoods together to learn with one another.
