Goodreads asked Cindy Brookshire:

What are you currently working on?

Cindy Brookshire I plan speakers for our monthly writers' group meetings at the library and work with a spoken word poet to organize regular open mics at an ice cream parlor. In fall 2021 I will lead weekly "Telling Our Stories" sessions at the senior center, to encourage people to write down their memories for their children and grandchildren. Our writer's group is leading four workshops in 2021-22 as part of an NEA Big Read grant. The entire town of Clayton, NC is being encouraged to read Sandra Cisneros' "The House on Mango Street." I look forward to hearing the voices that come out of all of these engaging experiences, and what I will in turn write for myself as a result of being engaged with my community!
