BIG NEWS!!! We are now meeting at the Yocum Institute, in the Art Room, one Saturday each month at 11:00 AM!
3000 Penn Avenue, West Lawn, PA 19609

🙋Just another message for our Pagoda Writers🏯

Greetings, all Pagoda Writers!!

Join us next weekend at the Yocum Institute for Arts Education (3000 Penn Ave, West Lawn, PA 19609) on Saturday, June 14, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Use the far right entrance and look for us in Art Studio 2. The friendly staff at the desk can assist you, if needed.

This month we present Janice E. Rodriguez, an award-winning author of short stories, published in online and print journals. Her novel, Ruby Moyer’s Pineapple Upside-Down Life, is being published this year by Pretzel City Press and was born from snatches of other people’s conversations. In her workshop, Words Overheard: Finding Inspiration in the Mouths of Others, Rodríguez reads a short story that arose from a stranger’s sidewalk confession, reveals her favorite spots to forage for prompts, answers questions about writing, and leads participants in an exercise using words overheard. Come, join the fun and get your creative juices flowing!

Be sure to check out her full bio and more details about the workshop on our event webpage: https://www.pagodawriters.com/futureevents

As usual, please bring your notepads, creative ideas and questions!

Please take a moment now to send a quick email and let us know if you plan to come, or even if you’re a “maybe.”

Immediately following our monthly meetings, we have been going to lunch near the institute and would love for you to join us for some lively discussion and casual camaraderie 😊

We hope to see you there!!!
