Summer 2018 Write-a-Palooza is for writers of all levels. Write fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, plays, and screenplays. (For improving your writing fundamentals, the local community college instructors are excellent.) During the summer, this workshop is called “Write-a-Palooza” because you choose the number of nights you want and the dates. It meets at The Resiliency Center on Tuesday nights and Thursday nighs. The Manuscript Workshop, on Thursday evenings during the fall, winter, and spring is for writers who are already working on longer writing projects or collections of fiction, non-fiction, screenplays, and stage plays. The group reads and responds to two manuscripts per week and supports each other with the particular issues that arise out of working on a full-length manuscript. The leader provides written comments for each participant, meets with writers privately, and brings in additional resources as applicable. Read participants’ own words about their experiences in the workshops.
