Wednesdays On the Stoop, a series of free programming by Zoom every Wednesday from 4 pm - 5 pm. The sessions are designed to be a constant structure--every Wednesday at 4 you can count on Blue Stoop to plug you into your writing energy with an informal and supportive space.

Favorite First Lines! Please bring a first line you love from a poem or story to share, something that blew you away when you first read it. We will make a master document of these, then give people time to work from one of the lines shared (or take the time to work on whatever else you want.) At the end we will have a brief check-in about how the writing time went for each of us.
