Too Much Information? December 12th

Facilitated by the Discussion Group
Ongoing for awhile. All are welcome. Founders Room

In the first of several sessions that may be scheduled over the next few months, the Discussion Group will focus on both individual and social effects of the Internet, good and bad, intended and unintended. The first session will be on Sunday, December 12. We will consider, to the extent that our time allows, what recent research has revealed about how we receive and process information. For information and links to source material, contact Herb Reeves at hrbrvs6@yahoo.com.


9:45 AM
Dickens and the Resurrection of Christmas, December 19th

Facilitated by Herb Reeves
One morning. All are welcome. Founders Room

After more than a century of both good and bad adaptations of "A Christmas Carol," the Short Story Session on December 19 will examine the state of Christmas celebrations at the time Dickens wrote his work by attempting to take a fresh look at an all-too-familiar classic. Our operating assumption is that anyone wanting to attend has access to a copy of the work and is able to read it again in time for the discussion. Again, for more information, contact Herb at the above e-mail address.


December 18th at 6:00 PM
Earth Spirit Group Celebrates Yule

We will hold an indoor/outdoor gathering on December 18th, at 6:00 PM, at the GUUF annex for the coming Yule. Following a covered dish dinner we will gather by the fire. Join us to explore the ways we can bring the spirit and joy of the winter traditions into our hearts and homes. And the wheel turns again.


Relaxed Writing: Discover the Writer Within

New Adult RE class now taking registrations - only 1 spot left!
Sundays starting January 9th, 9:30 AM to 10:45 AM, place TBD
Facilitator: Nan Lundeen

The purpose of this class is to renew, inspire, delight yourself, free your creativity, and connect with fellow writers at GUUF. The workshops focus on the creative process, not where to place commas or the importance of strong verbs. The premise of the class is that relaxation, free writing, and affirmations free the talent that lies within each of us and allows us to discover the creative writer within. Like the cow chewing her cud, writers are ruminants. We'll learn how to milk our potential. We can accept up to 12 adults. Registration is required. Please email: adultreregistration@greenvilleuu.org

Nan Lundeen is a published poet. She is the author of the book The Pantyhose Declarations and numerous poems published in small literary magazines. A journalist for 30 years, she has taught relaxed writing continuing education workshops at Furman University and elsewhere. For more information, please contact Nan at nlundeen@bellsouth.net.
