(PRWEB) August 24, 2003 -- The Wild Angels, the poets and writers group featured at the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine, kicks off its fifth year with an ambitious and very exciting program. A new instructor from NYUs Gallatin Writing Program joins the group. A third series begins in January for those who have published or who are working on a big project. And there are the fun and innovative Wild Sunday's.

Each year we have a theme. This year it is cultivating the writers voice. You know the unique sound of Faulkners writing or Ginsburgs poetry. We have our own special way of relating a story or comforting a friend. Vox Angelica - the voice of Angels! Let your voice ring loud and clear in the rafters of the great Cathedral. Come join us this year as we explore, cultivate and release our own voices to the heavens and to the community.    The classes are open to new and experienced writers.
