Shannon loves: Jandy Nelson, Anne Lamott, Rebecca Solnit, Cole Arthur Riley, Maggie Smith, Jane Austen, Sue Miller, Mary Oliver, Stephen King, Middlebridge School, the Narragansett Historical Society, and words that begin with the letter ‘J’.
Community
Co-founder and facilitator of the South County Writers Group, a community space for writers across genres and experience levels to come together in shared practice. In a process that can often feel solitary, the group offers something different: a vibrant, thoughtful community built on trust, curiosity, and the belief that every voice has a place. Together, writers create, read, and listen closely to language, to one another, and to the stories that ask to be told.
