You know, that story that always comes back to you, and that starts you thinking, “Hey, I wish I could write it someday. . .” Here at Rock Salt we can help you do exactly what you have always wanted to do — tell your story. And not just tell it. Get the very thing that kept it alive in you to come alive, too. Under the guidance of award-winning novelist, Peter Anderson, you’ll work with others who, just like you, have been wishing or trying to get the story to shape itself on the page. What you get is both satisfaction and achievement, not to mention the lively fun of an evening with others engaged in projects just like yours.
This is a six-week long writers workshop held Tuesday evenings from 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM.
Workshops are held at Ideation Station led by Dr. Peter Anderson, whose hard-hitting novel of South Africa in the Apartheid era, “The Unspeakable,” has won critical acclaim together with literary awards. Peter has many years’ experience running writers’ workshops, formal and informal, both in South Africa and the United States.

The public is invited to join the gathering of students and faculty from 1 to 1:25 p.m. to watch the progress of the Sun as it casts an image on the atrium floor and aligns with the equinox marker at exactly “solar noon,” (1:18 p.m. CDT). The IDEA Center is located on the Austin College campus at 1108 E. Richards Street in Sherman. The event is free and open to the public, weather and sunlight permitting. Sunlight is required for the event.
The annual fall and spring equinoxes are the two days when the sun shines directly on the equator and provides nearly equal daylight and night hours. A gnomon hole is an ancient device originally used to compute time.
Dr. David Baker, professor of physics, director of the Adams Observatory, and author of the award-winning book The 50 Most Extreme Places in the Solar System, will provide comments and instruction during the event.
“Watching the sunbeam march across the floor of the Page Atrium and arrive at the equinox marker is magical,” said Baker. “It marks a significant moment in time, one that has been observed by many civilizations throughout history. The solar observatory at Austin College does it in a special way. It’s worth seeing.” Read more….
