Hello Writers!
It is a pleasure to welcome Natasha Hooper to Writers Workshop today. Natasha was on the 2016 San Diego Slam Team that took second place at Nationals this summer.
She brings a fresh perspective to social justice by decorating her poems in lavish diction and beautiful extended metaphor to paint pictures and create deep resonating emotion for her audience. We are lucky to have her with us today. Please take notes, ask questions, participate, and be engaged!
