Click Here to Register

In this generative writing workshop, we'll read and discuss brief  excerpts of poetry and prose, and we'll use those discussions to inform  our generative writing exercises. This class is adaptable to any genre, including hybrid writing, and participants will have the option to work  on one longer piece or several shorter pieces. Participants are also  welcome to bring a draft of a work-in-progress to edit and grow! We will  focus on language, POV, character/conflict, setting, sound, and form.  Everyone can expect to walk away with some new writing and fresh ideas  on how to keep going. Writers of all levels welcome.
