Janna Marlies Maron — Writers Network

What is Creative Nonfiction?

Friday, Jun 5, 2015,  9:00 a.m. – 11 a.m.

Janna Marlies MaronArmed with an M.A. in Creative Writing, Janna Marlies Maron is a self-professed woman in progress. In addition to teaching privately, she is an adjunct professor at Sacramento City College and William Jessup University. Always on the lookout for new opportunities, Janna has recently added “publisher” to her resume with the creation of Under the Gum Tree, a digital literary arts magazine that publishes creative nonfiction storytelling. She single-handedly recruited a creative team of editors, designers and interns to get the magazine off the ground. Its fifteenth issue was released in April 2015, and it was listed as a “must read” local publication in the May 2012 issue of Sacramento Magazine. The same article recognized Janna as a “local literati.” She is also the co-director of TrueStory, a nonfiction reading series and open mic in Sacramento. She is an expert in the creative nonfiction genre, teaching others to tell true stories without shame.

The public is invited. CWC membership not required.

Writers Network is held the first Friday of every month at the International House of Pancakes (IHOP), 2216 Sunrise Blvd., Rancho Cordova (just north of Highway 50) starting at 9 AM. Meetings are free. Attendees pay for their own breakfast.  Get map.
