Monthly Story Circle
Please check back later in 2026 for classes in 2027.
I will post Haiku classes at Scottsdale Artists’ School, once I have the dates!
Are you tired of online classes?
Do you want to share your stories in a supportive writing community?
Have you lost momentum in your writing?
This monthly, in-person class is for you.
Each class will include a short teaching by Lynne Hartke with an emphasis on personal and legacy stories. We will also do a timed writing to stretch our creative brains. Each participant will have the opportunity to read something they have written for a positive and supportive critique.
Dates in 2026 and 2027:
The fall class has been postponed.
Please check back later in 2026 for 2027 classes.
Please reach out to me at lynnehartke@gmail.com if you don’t want to pay online!
Class Testimonials:
“With no prior experience, attending Lynne’s class felt like an adventure.
I was driven by a need to put my mother’s legacy into words and to process my grief.
Lynne provided gentle guidance to our small, intimate group,
often using prompts and illustrative writing samples.
Her attentive listening and helpful comments were encouraging.
I found that narrating and storytelling were comforting and fulfilling!”
- Ping
“Through Lynne’s classes and guidance,
I was able to finish and publish a collection of my poems, songs, and ponderings
from my heart and life experiences.”
- Glenda S.
“I wrote a collection of stories in Lynne’s class,
a combination of family history stories and present-day stories.
I wrote the book because I want to pass along my faith and hope in Jesus Christ
to my children and grandchildren,
and how I received that from my parents and grandparents.”
-Renae R.
