STEPHENVILLE, Texas \u2014 Author Tom Murphy will lead a free workshop on sacred space writing at the Camp Crucis Outdoor Chapel, 2875 Camp Crucis Court in Granbury, beginning at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6. Murphy is the 2021-22 Corpus Christi Poet Laureate and this year\u2019s writer-in-residence for the Langdon Review of the Arts in Texas<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chapel, originally a native American mound, is now part of the Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth and a sacred Christian location rising above the South Fork of Strouds Creek. Workshop attendees will explore how such a place can help tap into personal creativity and expand spiritual awareness through the power of writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants should bring writing supplies, sunscreen, insect repellant and a hat. The workshop is planned for outdoors, but the elements could move it inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Murphy has studied native American, Christian and Neolithic sites. His book Snake Woman Moon: The Avebury Bride Cycle<\/em> examines the Avebury Stone complex in England, near Stonehenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
