The most common reasons for writing are to express yourself, to analyze, to inform, entertain, and persuade. Sometimes your writing will combine several purposes. Some writing that you do for yourself is practical such as filling out forms and writing letters of complaint. Other self-prompted writing you will do simply because you enjoy it. This type of writing includes poems, journal entries, personal memories, reminiscences, and “just for fun” topics of interest.
Everyone is an individual. You think and act in ways that are uniquely your own, as we each have our own “voice”. As you write you discover what you think about yourself – and the world around you which is different for everyone. This is one of the main reasons why I enjoy teaching this class so much. The diversity inspires me and hopefully will inspire you as we go on this great adventure together.
I am proud to introduce a collection of writings by the students of the Fall 2023 Creative Writing Workshop at the Klamath Basin Senior Citizens’ Center in Klamath Falls, OR.

Serving the Klamath Community through Meals on Wheels
A knock at the door might not seem like a big deal to many of us. But, to a homebound senior, it could signal the arrival of the only person they might see all day or all week long. It brings hope. It brings health. It brings the nutrition and care that will completely make their day. We can’t do it alone. It takes all of us to keep the meals on wheels movement going. Call the Senior Center at 541-883-7171 to become a volunteer today!
If you or someone you know is in need of Meals on Wheels, please register with the Klamath Lake Counties Council on Aging by calling 541-205-5400.

January Director’s Greeting![]()
As winter settles over the Basin with its crisp air and chilly mornings, I’m reminded how each New Year arrives like a fresh blanket of snow—clean, quiet, and full of possibility. January gives us a chance to pause, take a deep breath, and ask ourselves: What do we want this year to feel like?![]()
January is also Mental Wellness Month, and that feels especially important. The colder, darker days can sometimes make us feel a bit lonely or low, so this is our gentle reminder: you are not alone. Your emotional well-being matters just as much as your physical health. A warm meal, a friendly conversation, a shared laugh at the Center—these small moments can do big things for the heart and mind.![]()
With snowy sidewalks and icy roads, please remember snow safety, too. Take your time, use handrails, wear sturdy shoes, and don’t be afraid to ask for help. We’d much rather you call us for support than risk a fall. Your safety is one of our highest priorities.![]()
A new year also means new goals and new beginnings. Maybe this is the year you try an exercise class, join a group, make a new friend, or learn something completely new—even if it scares you a little. Growth often lives just on the other side of our comfort zone. Let’s set intentions together for healthy mindsets, stronger connections, and a year filled with purpose.![]()
From all of us at the Klamath Basin Senior Center, thank you for being part of this community. Here’s to 2026: a year of courage, kindness, and stepping into new things—one safe, steady step at a time.![]()
Warmly,![]()
