@SHCinSF writers learned so much about the power of art as activism at the #clarionalley mural project today! #shcsummer

[Clarissa Mendiola @ReeseDeRo]

@SHCinSF creative writers are inspired, thanks to @SFBGS! Perfect weather, stunning gardens. #shcsummer #beSHCsf

Another 94 degree day = trip to the refreshingly air conditioned @deyoungmuseum for these @SHCinSF creative writers! #shcsummer #beSHCsf

[Clarissa Mendiola @ReeseDeRo]

When it’s 94 degrees in SF, you take your @SHCinSF Creative Writing Camp to the beach! #shcsummer #beSHCsf

#SHCsummer creative writers share their favorite pieces from our fun week together onstage @SHCinSF. Thanks campers, it's been a blast!

[Clarissa Mendiola @ReeseDeRo]

TBH #SHCsummer creative writers are overwhelmed with inspiration after a morning @Pier24SF. Headed back to @SHCinSF to write some stories!

[Clarissa Mendiola @ReeseDeRo]

Finding inspiration in nature is easy at @SFBGS! #SHCsummer creative writers had a blast @SHCinSF

[Clarissa Mendiola @ReeseDeRo]

Thinking about Guam on #indigenousday and the way colonization makes Indigenous people and our lands the front lines of wars we didn't start

Established writers and artists are 18 times more likely to commit suicide than the general population.

we trespass each other, stumble-drunk on all that unknowing, cradled by the gutter, mulch and runoff of a city’s deviant seasons. #poetweet
