Want to recharge your creative energies in the New Year? Join us for a Lighthouse Literary Guild adventure in creativity. During the six week course Fran Severn will lead an exploration of that nebulous concept. We’ll share what makes us feel creative, what keeps us from tapping into our creative side, and how to activate our imaginations. Be ready for real world examples of creativity to start brainstorming and play with thinking “5 degrees off center line.”
Fran Severn-Levy loves to play with words and images. Her sense of wanderlust and curiosity is seen in over 200 published articles on subjects ranging from the National Scrabble Championship, participating in medical clinical trials, a school for butlers in London, and training horses for Civil War reenactors. She’s the author of “Art Drives on Delmarva” a guide to galleries and art venues in the region. She lives in Salisbury with her husband, three dogs, and two horses.

There will be discussions of what interests readers and how to write in a concise, engaging manner that will maintain their interest.
