The Tuesday Night Workshop in the Fall, Winter, and Spring for writers of all levels. Write fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, plays, and screenplays. Write during workshop time in a friendly setting. If you choose to, submit a manuscript for review by workshop participants. (For improving your writing fundamentals, the local community college instructors are excellent.) New this November 19; December 3, 10, and 17, Special Price $100: The Story Structure Workshop for writers of all genres except poetry. Learn how to use dramatic structure to make your audience want to know what happens next. This workshop will be customized to meet the needs of the attendees, so contact me to let me know what you’re working on. In a combination of lectures and interactive exercises, we’ll look at the “rules,” and when to break them.
The Manuscript Workshop, on Thursday evenings, is designed to support writers who already have made significant headway writing a full-length book, play, screenplay, or collection. Each week two manuscripts are read and discussed, or particular challenges writers face are addressed.
Read participants’ own words about their experiences in the workshops.
