During the month of May, we will be hosting a writingmarathon across Western Pennsylvania by inviting people
to visit local museums, cemeteries, parks, bridges,
schools, and anywhere they can draw inspiration. See our
suggested prompts inside this brochure.
At the end of the month, we will gather for a Read Around
to share our writings in fellowship and reflection. All are
welcome and refreshments will be served.
Writing marathons began in the early 1990s with the
Southeastern Louisiana Writing Project and have been
adapted for use in National Writing Project Institutes,
classrooms, literary festivals, and writing groups throughout
the country.
During a marathon, small groups or individuals travel
through different landscapes, writing and composing
along the way in any genre they like, drawing inspiration
from their surroundings and also from their fellow writers.
