This drop-in writing group (mostly of creative nonfiction and poetry) is a weekly chance to be creative with local author Merle Bachman. Age 18 and up.

Merle Lyn Bachman loves to write. A retired professor of English, she has worked with college students and adults on creative writing. Merle is also an accomplished poet and prose writer. Her latest book, Thank You for Being, combines poetry and prose in a memoir. Relatively new to Bloomington, Merle has lived in and written about many places, from Albany, New York, to San Francisco, California. She believes that everyone has important stories and moments of wonder to share, and looks forward to writing with you.
