Fostering the art of writing in Laguna Beach and beyond
We're STILL Writing
Third Street partners with Stu News to create community column REVEALING LAGUNA BEACH MOMENTS
Capturing moments in our lives - funny, poignant, sad, insightful - establishes our shared humanity. Third Street is encouraging people to share their Laguna Beach experiences with the readers of Stu News in a weekly column that will run throughout 2021 From Laguna with Love.
This project seeks to connect the diverse, amazing wonderful Laguna Beach community and to reveal life here is not always beautiful sunsets on pristine beaches - although we are thankful to have that as part of our landscape. Through words and photographs we'll tell our stories.
Public contributions from all ages, and walks of life are encouraged - just make sure they reflect something about Laguna Beach. Please see our submitting guidelines or contact president Amy Dechary at amy@thirdstreetwriters.org for more information.
