About the monthly gatherings
Each monthly meetup has a different focus from the world of lyric writing and emotive storytelling. Sessions will
build on skills and principles from previous months, but you're totally welcome to drop into any session.
The April Roundtable is about laying down a foundation of observation skills and writing from
the senses to evoke connection. Also known as “show, don’t tell”, learning how to write from the senses
is a powerful practice you can apply immediately to your songwriting creating captivating worlds of sight, sound, taste, smell, physical sensation, and movement.
