Yuba Sutter's Community For Readers and Writers
|
|
ith the ability to read we gain knowledge of the world; with
the ability to write we gain knowledge of the self. These two acts constitute
a relationship, a conversation, and the groundwork of thinking so very
fundamental to health in our world.
Welcome to the literary explosion of Northern California. Please
join us in the mission: combining the mind opening power of books
with the tools and network of a community writing center.
Amicus represents a new model for positive community change. The written
word is perhaps universally recognized as a force, having the power
to shape our perceptions, create our intentions, and reveal our common
truths, assumptions, and goals.

ur goal is to promote and advance the literary genius of
Marysville, Yuba City, and the surrounding area - to offer
opportunities for writers, to educate, to enhance that force inherent
in all of us - the creativity of language.
