Illustrated Storytelling Group
Cathy G. Johnson
The Illustrated Storytelling Group at LitArts Rhode Island is a writing group for authors who use visual mediums to tell their stories. Focus will be on comics, graphic novels, and manga but we welcome all types of illustrated books!
We act as a monthly support group to creators that offers encouragement, critique and celebration. The goal of the group is to develop and support a local writing community for visual storytellers.
We meet on the 4th Tuesday of the month at 6pm, meeting monthly at LitArts RI. If you’d like to join us, you can become a member at the LitArts website and sign up.
