In-Person NaNoWriMo & HOLIDAY OPEN MIC Featuring Writers Reading!

Christine Moughamian, NC Writers' Network Regional Representative, will moderate the event.

Our In-Person NaNoWriMo & Holiday Open Mic at Pomegranate Books is a great opportunity to network with fellow writers and celebrate the season over your favorite Café Zola brew.

Did you participate in NaNoWriMo in November? (National Novel Writing Month).

If so, bring a brief excerpt of your writing and read it aloud at our Open Mic.
If not, we'll have a writing prompt for you to respond to in exactly...

6 words. (Yes, that's six words).

Either way, join us for our In-Person Open Mic with writers reading, writing, or simply listening and sharing together some bright Holiday cheer!

6 TIPS FOR READING ALOUD

1. Enunciate clearly!
2. Slow down! Speak more slowly than you think necessary. Slower–– still!
3. Make eye contact. Look up! (at your camera).
4. Turn up the volume. Project!
5. Practice reading aloud in front of a mirror. Practice!
6. It’s OK to feel awkward, just laugh at yourself. Relax!
   We’re all friends here. ☺
