Creatyve PenCraft
Poetry, story, & spoken word—live in the Hudson Valley and online.
Welcome to Creatyve PenCraft!
— a creative community where writers, poets, and storytellers share their work, collaborate, and keep the creative practice going—even when the muse is on vacation.
Hi, I’m Magdalen — poet, storyteller, and the person behind Creatyve PenCraft.
Creatyve PenCraft grew out of a simple realization: creative work often happens alone, but it grows stronger in community. Some people arrive with finished work. Others arrive with half-formed ideas or a page that refuses to cooperate. Both are welcome here. So Join Us!
What We Do Here
Live readings and featured voices, where poetry and story are shared out loud, in community.
Craft notes, process reflections, and sparks of inspiration to keep you writing between gatherings.
Monthly prompts, writing circles, and shared reflections — a place to practice, experiment, and keep the words moving in community.
