WRITING WORKSHOP: Our mission is to craft epic tales of Good Fiction.

I have tailored these classes for students with an interest in personal narratives who want to develop/hone their writing skills in a supportive environment. You don’t need to have written before but you must commit to writing regularly during the course.

Writing Objectives

● Gain an understanding of the elements of fiction and memoir writing.

● Confront the inner critic who censors our words and pauses our pens.

● Practice revision, which is the foundation of writing.

● Embrace the idea that your story is worth telling!
